Truck Survey - Do you avoid tolls?

yeap i enjoy the two laners when possiable and the forgotten mom and pop truck stops to stop at and eat

 

i dodge any road toll i can, mainly because there is no longer a deduction on IFTA ot offset HVUT- but i will pay bridge fare to cross the river

 

I like the no wrong answer part..

 

The use of toll roads used to offset fuel tax - I didn't realize that they changed that.

My company places no restrictions on whether or not to use the Turnpike System here in Florida. We have SunPass, and we just run routes the most efficient and fastest way possible.

To "dodge" a toll would cost extra time and fuel, and there are many times we'll see 1-95 at a dead stop while the Turnpike is moving smoothly. Of course, it can all reverse with an accident on the Pike as well.

If I were still to be an independent, I would heavily weigh the cost vs. time vs. fuel before I ran extra miles around a toll road. I would also factor in the wear and tear on the truck to back road it.
