The best long stretch in my memory is westbound on I-90 in western Montana.

After a summit climb, there's a fast 3-4 miles downhill approaching Butte, MT.

Other mentions would be the Grapevine in CA., Cabbage Hill just eastward of Pendleton, OR., and 2 places in western NC.: Old Fort mountain east of Asheville, and a sister mountain that descends toward South Carolina.

Someone should make up a book of these great downhills, so we could go and visit, enjoy as a tourist; sort of an adult Eco-Modder live video game to be enjoyed like a carnival ride!!!
