    Maybe I should have paid the toll and taken that Sam Houston Pkwy... the evening rush hr on US 59 and I-10 was... :biggrin_25521:

    But I passed that and now parked at a rest area without restroom in LA.... Going to deliver in NJ on Monday...

    Future reference Toll for big trucks are $7. Quite a few toll booths depending on how far your traveling. Basically one between each major roadway around the beltway. However usually going to save you a TON of time.
