    Does anyone have a link to a toll calculator for all states? I found some state calculators that work well and some (LIKE INDIANA) are so confusing to use that most folks just give up which is what they want us to do.:biggrin_2555:

    Neither does Ohio.

    You can easily just go directly to the states tollway site and get the rates.

    I drive all 48 and Canada. I know I can look at each states DOT web site and take the time to find each, however most are very hard to navigate and take too long (by design I am sure) so I was looking for ONE web site that is easy to use to calculate the toll. For instance, if I am driving from Chicago to Buffalo, I would like to know taking the 80/90 thru Indiana/Ohio costs me $90. This way if I have time, I can take 30 to avoid the toll even though it adds 80 miles. (thinking I spend about $60 for 100 miles so I would save at least $30 in toll..)

    Does this make sense?

    I drive the same. It only takes a few minutes. Plus, I write down the cost for a trip and note the cost and remember it. Seems no big problem.

    yes, you are correct. I was just looking for a lazy way out. I have several of this 'no-toll' routes that I use. You have to be careful though because some of the tolls are not that bad. For instance Kansas and up state NY are not too bad. I don't mind paying $7 or so to save 100 miles! I also have EZpass which usually has a toll discount..

    Thanks.

    so no one has found a site similar to say google maps where i can enter starting location and ending location and enter the number of axles and then have it return the total toll cost?

    Doesnt EZ Pass allow you the ability to pay for it all, then look it up online to see what was charged to your account for the trip?
