Planning a long trip for next year. Taking any and all suggestions, routes, advice, etc

Hey all! Currently planning a short little road trip for next year. Main goal is Key West, FL to Prudhoe Bay, AK, taking my time along the way. Will be from May-August (ish). Very rough calculations put it at around 15k miles, starting and ending in Virginia.

Looking for any suggestions or advice. Best routes, places to stop, etc.

Have a saved Google Maps list for places to stop, can share that too if helpful. The pins on the map screenshot are all places I’d ideally stop.

Car that I’ll be driving is a 2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser, if that’s relevant at all. Yes, I’m planning on a large gas bill haha.
