Drive it home IF it has all season tires; if temps dip below freezing summer tires are reallly squerely. I found that out the hard way with my car in Chicago. So, check the weather forecasts before deciding....or put all seasons on it which will allow you to drive in cold weather as long as road salt is not evident.
I have driven the southern route from Chicago to Idaho a number of times. It's a boring drive through boring country; but, will allow you wring out car, learn its idiosyncrasies, and gain confidence.

Garage rearranged before I made it to bed. Soccer goal that was hanging above the car is now outside!
Oil burn was minimal to none. Oil is still so clear its still hard to read the stick.
What a great trip. I'm so glad I didn't ship it!
Wow, feels so good to be back in a P car. This 4th one is my best one yet.
