    Cant get the Will Smith song out of my head. Anyhoo,Im going to be doing some running around FL next week and would love some help with tolls and how to avoid them if thats what works best. I have not been south of Naples so its all new to me. I have been to Orlando back when disney world opened and I was born in Jax.

    Im going to be going from Mcdonough GA to Miami (pricemarts DC on NW 100th st) then to Orlando and on to Jax. Two different loads and both under 10k if weights an issue. I have routed it useing three different apps and its all about the same. How much should I figure for tolls if I go that route? Thanks in advance for any help.

    If you want a nice run (which I would consider nice) run 75 south to Sumterville(next exit south of Wildwood), take 471 south pick up 98 east and run it to 17 south, grab 66 east in Wachula and run it to south 27, you'll avoid all the cluster F spots of 27 through Clermont, Leesburg, Haines City, and all the other little towns. Check your map out, they're good truck roads and not heavily traveled. Just a thought...
