Can Anyone Give Me GOOD Directions to Hershey, Pa?

I am in Suffolk County. Last time we used the navi it took us through Manhattan which we DO NOT want again. If anyone can give me SPECIFIC directions I'd greatly appreciate it.

TIA

Going through Manhattan is often the fastest way. Otherwise take the Throgs neck to the GW.

Thanks, do you think the Throgs Neck to GW is better than the way the other posted suggested?

I think it is as long as you aren't going during rush hour. I live on the north shore in Suffolk and that is the route we always take unless the GPS says Manhattan will be faster.

I think the other way is better since it puts you more south and you avoid the Cross Bronx which is always backed up and is currently under construction.

I would just go through the city or GW. You are going out of your way going through SI IMO. Especially since you live in Medford. We did that once and it took much longer than the city or during non rush hour times going GW. We travel to PA often.
