I am planning a roadtrip for the end of July. Pictured below is a rough idea of what were thinking, if anyone has any recommendations of "must see" things id appreciate it! Nothing is set in stone, going to be a 9-10 day trip and we want to see as much as possible. Waterfalls,
scenic routes instead of main highways, tourist attractions, cool campgrounds, activities for the kids, restaurants etc. Also, if anyone needs anything transported feel free to DM or call/text and maybe we could figure something out.

Drop down a little farther into KY and go to Bowling Green for the Super Car Reunion. Mammoth Cave is also close to Bowling Green, and Fort Knox isn't too far out of Louisville.

It looks like you will be on the NYS Thruway. Outside of Rochester is Letchworth State Park:

Great place to take the kids. Plenty of camp grounds also.

Niagara Falls is always beautiful.

How about Falling Water in PA?

A Carlisle car show (various shows throughout summer months).

Hershey, PA is a great little town too

Other than attractions, it looks like your line goes right through my house in central NJ. If you're taking an old Chevy, and if there's any car trouble, I can provide a "fix it" stop.

Well equipped.
