    Newark to Beverly Ma @ $869

    I got it at 245 miles each way = $1.77 a mile....

    Deduct tolls.....traffic if you hit it right you can easily turn it. Some days not so much....

    It's a start I guess.

    You better check and see if they will give you an EZPASS. If not, be careful. I think the GW bridge is $60 inbound. New Rochelle is $7.50. I don't know about the Jersey turnpike. Let's say it's $1.50. $69 in tolls. Your run to Beverly Ma just went to $1.63/mile. I'm pretty sure I underestimated those numbers too. The rates don't seem that bad but the tolls might ruin it.
