There's apparently another oddball-numbered interstate being considered: Interstate 3 (named after 3rd Infantry Division, IIRC). It will run from Savannah, GA to near Knoxville, TN. There is already opposition growing (because if it's built, we're doooooooooooooooooooomed).
But I-3 is not written into legislation, unlike the Infamous I-99. If it gets built it might be a Southern I-93 or I-87 which would fit into the grid and be approved by AASHTO.
I’m not rational when it comes to I-99 and don’t even get me started on I-238...
