Isn't 470 a toll road? And I checked recently and I think (as near as I could figure online) it would cost $50 to go when towing a rig - 4 axles. I may have done something wrong as that is a LOT.
And do NOT go thru on I25. A few years ago I went thru at 10 am , 1pm and 3 pm (different days of course). Everyone of them I had at least one stretch of stop and go for 1/4 to 2 miles. I take the other route thru Aurora- a little longer but much less crowded in my opinion.
OOPS! I missed the above post! LOL
