I rant about hating questing... but I'm starting to think this is just what I tell myself, because my actions certainly say the opposite. I'm now working on my 4th level 80, and I'm having little to no trouble with it. I'm so strange.
Outland isn't so bad, I guess, but I still don't much like it. I hit 58, get to Outland, and then go through 10 levels of, "IHATETHISZONEMUSTGETOUT!!" so I race through Hellfire, hit Nagrand (which I actually like) and know both the zones so well they pretty much fly past. Then, at 68 I go straight to Howling Fjord in Northrend.
I LOVE Northrend. The zones are beautiful, the questlines are like playing out stories, and the rewards are great. For some reason 60-80 just flies past. Questing in Northrend is actually fun -- I just toss some music on in the background (sometimes I listen to the in-game music, it's actually very pretty) and grind away.
As for BGs, your battlegroup is probably like mine. For some reason Horde just cannot, for the life of them, ever win. It's awful. It's very demoralizing, especially since my newest alt booking her way towards 80 is a little dwarf pally... and the BGs I've been in, we've roflstomped Horde. I feel guilty about it, and decided to not BG anymore, I can't stand beating up on "my own faction."
Sometimes it's fun... but eh. I definitely wouldn't want to try leveling like that. I think it would crush my desire to play the game...
