Getting in wasn't that bad, managed to avoid the toll roads. When I got to my delivery I received my next load with directions from the terminal. (never been before) My gps couldn't route me to either place because of road restrictions. And the customer said I couldn't stay on the property to figure out how to get out of there and couldn't give me directions. So I left the same way I came in heading back towards Hamburg, PA. Finally found a place to pull over and think for a minute. Punched the p/u address in again and was able to get a route for my p/u and to the terminal.
Wasn't so lucky toll wise getting out, ending up on 2 of them, one in NJ then the tunnel in DE. 21 bucks so not too bad. I know we get reimbursed but it's the principle of it all. Ended up almost 80 miles OOR getting around NJ.
WS drivers whats your 20

Well Samantha routes me around toll roads! Only other time I paid a toll was when I didn't listen to her! Was a straight shot on 70 all the way to the West coast. Kept telling me to take such and such exit when I entered Kansas and I couldn't for the life of me figure out why! Then I saw an exit sign "Last Free Exit" and I was like, WTH's a free exit. lol, found out soon enough. At least the Kansas one took my debit card, NJ and DE are cash only. Used up 21 bucks worth of my laundry quarters!
American-Trucker and Trilleth Thank this. -
at least KS is cheap its only $6.25 to run the toll road end to end.

Joe's in 1993. Fairly easy to pick out, step-deck skateboard.

I'm friendlier than he is on here, but he's a lot friendlier in person. -
yeah totally, i either forget or am lazy. i have posted it before, but running in and out of nyc twice from sayreville cost me $340 in tolls, i absolutly #### you not haha. anywhere else really doesnt bother me after that i just keep a bit of cash on me. the nj turnpike aint bad you just stop for the ticket once not at every toll booth.
as for the kansas toll road when i was new i thought i could be cool and avoid tolls. i didnt realize how cheap the kansas turnpike was. same with west virginia, trying to avoid that is how i found my first 13% hill hahaha. and thats only 20.25.
so yeah live and learn. there is a setting to avoid tolls on the gps you need to shut off.truckerdaddy24 Thanks this. -
Oh no, I'll leave that setting turned on thank you! Not my truck, I'll avoid paying to drive it down a road if I can!
