mike69mackman Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Guess I'm making my first trip to Wisconsin on Monday. Have never been that far west in the big truck. Looks like mostly toll roads on the way out and back. Any good places to stop on the way would be appreciated .

storkmack Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 You should stop in Chicago and learn how not do things on many different levels. If your coming thru Marengo and need a hand, look us up. -Brad Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31343-wisconsin/#findComment-185455 Share on other sites More sharing options...

mack mhe9 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 You have the Dells just south of there. Really nice. A lot of things like Ripleys, you used to be able to ride the ducks " military trucks" on the lake. Are you driving?

Mike Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 Yes, Madison is a nice place to visit. It is a clean and pretty town. House on the Rock is an unusual place to visit, but worth the time. I can't remember the village we visited that had some interesting buildings. mike Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31343-wisconsin/#findComment-185575 Share on other sites More sharing options...

vision386 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 A trip that takes you anywhere near Milwaukee is not complete without a trip to the Mars Cheese Castle! plenty of truck parking,free samples,and ANY kind of good cheese or snack you ever heard of! real nice folks! and if you don't have room (or don't want to eat it all before you get home) they'll ship most anything anywhere!.........................Mark Quote Mack Truck literate.

Ken I might have a reload in kent oh on the way back. If I do I'll give you a call and see about that breakfast I owe ya when I get back towards holidaysburg. Just stopped on Freemont ind just now. Got heavy storms coming in so I'm parked for the evening. Thanks for the suggestions fellas!

mack mhe9 Posted May 28, 2013 Share Posted May 28, 2013 For Oh and iN I run across the top instead of the toll road it ads about an 1.5 hr but its a lot nicer. Toll road only has fast food. If you do jump of at Hubbard go north on 7, west on 82 then 422, 480 , 176, 90 , 2 , around Toledo 280 ,75 ,475, 23, 20.all the way across to 94. Saves a lot of money, good dinners in pioneer oh. Shipshawna in, rolling prairie in. Just saying Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31343-wisconsin/#findComment-185689 Share on other sites More sharing options...
