Default Shortest route from Jersey

CateP, The shortest route for you (I travel up from Howell almost every weekend) Is GSP to the turnpike, over GW Bridge follow 95 to New Haven and 91 to 84 in Hartford. 84 to Mass pike exit 290 to 495, Rt 3 (Everett TPK) to 93. This way is 40 miles shorter than the route you take and you avoid 84 west of Hartford which is hilly and curvy. Of course you will have a few tense moments after the GW Bridge. For towing it is best to take the Tappan Zee to 95. I also leave at 230 in the morning and with one stop make it in 5-1/2 hours later I'm having breakfast at Georges. By 9:30 I'm on the island
