    Nope, Olhand, it sounds about right. It's almost $300 end-to-end. Insanity. That's why I go around it whenever possible.

    End to end maybe--but if I remember correctly-he was # loves on 70 in the buckeye(zanesville) so 70 joins the pike @new stanton exit 76 and carlisle is the 226
    class 7(5axles-67k-80k)$66.65---even class 8(which is considered an overweight fine in pa) over 80k=$77
    Thats why I was wondering--I never pass carlisle(EVER)no reason too--and as for running length of pike I guess I just cant ever see a reason for that either
    So therefor the question?
