November 3rd I am headed to Buffalo, NY from Las Vegas, NV.
I have made this trip 3x.
What would be the most scenic way to get to NY from Vegas considering the weather and season? should i drive to New Orleans then up through Virgina to see the colors of the trees in the Appalachia?

here is a list of routes i have already taken:

1st trip, buffalo, chicago, salt lake city, vegas.
cons - chicago traffic. pro's - seeing the awesome West.

2nd trip, vegas, grand junction, denver, indianapolis, buffalo
cons - past denver boring as ****. pro's - got to drive through awesome utah and over the rockies.

3rd trip, buffalo, st louis, tusla, albuquerque, vegas.
cons - again, boring until st. louis. pros - followed route 66

4th trip, ???

i would like the trip to take 6 days or less. what are your suggestions for a cool cross-country scenic trip?
