It looks like a 4.5 hour drive. Maps says I69 to I69. Other than usual Orange barrel areas is there anything I need to look out for? I have confidence in my Garmin GPS but it does not show detours and delays.
I am not looking forward to the down and back but it will be cheaper and safer to pick up my recent auction buy than shipping it up here.

On your trek south, Unless you can find a tree or you tote a bucket with you, plan to hit a restroom before getting too far from Indy.
You don’t have many options between Indy and E’ville!

You can also try using the Waze app to get you there as it will divert you to the quickest route if there’s long accident or construction delays.

My youngest son lives in Fort Wayne and we’re in Evansville. Haven’t made the trek there since last fall. Not a bad drive once you get to 69.

Roughest part will probably be on the way back getting on 465. During normal hours, there's a 5-10 minute slowdown. Obviously busy times of the day it will be longer.

That's actually 69 to 465 south to 69 south….beware there is construction on 465 where you get on 69 south. |

Don’t know if it matters, but don’t forget you have a time change in Evansville as well.

Is that near where the turn off for Mooresville is? |

So far all info has been spot on. Exit 4 was correct.
Larry I see what you meant! Thanks
