Best route for a motor home

We are driving a new to us motorhome from Jacksonville to Idaho. We are looking for a laidback, scenic trip on quiet roads. Looking for things to see on the way. Prefer rural to big city but need to see friends in Louisville, KY.

Jacksonville (Florida) ⇨ Idaho Falls (Idaho) Louisville (Kentucky) Mt Rushmore (South Dakota)

Maybe try starting with this route:

Starting from Jacksonville, customize the route to add a stop in Louisville in between Nashville and St. Louis.That lets you skip Chicago, but you can go through Omaha and up to Sioux Falls, then across the Badlands National Park, Mt Rushmore, and spend time near Jackson (Wyoming) and Grand Teton National Park before you reach Idaho Falls.
Not sure when you're driving, but make sure you double check all national parks since most are currently closed but hopefully they will start opening by the time you travel.
