Avoid the cross-Bronx (I 95s cut through NYC) like the plague. It will be a bit more mileage, but you should take the tapenzee bridge over the hudson. Doing that also gives you the opportunity to take one of my favourite highways in the northeast - I 684 to the merit parkway to the willbur cross to I-84 to the mass pike into boston.

But if you hit NYC at rush hour best to take the throughway (I 87) straight up to the 84 junction and avoid NYC totally



And I almost forgot. Don't speed in Jersey! Jersey troopers are jackasses
