As much as I like the limited access of the interstate and some state highways, I still enjoy the back roads, like US42 from Lebanon to Marysville.

I've driven the old US 40 to both Columbus and Indianapolis as an alternative scenic route to I-75. One can get an appreciation of how rough cross-country travel was before the interstate (imagning heavier traffic at variable speeds on now fairly empty stretches of two-lane highway, with the risk of head-on collissions while passing).
Now one can enjoy the scenery and small towns along the way.
