    I took the no toll route. Only 5 miles longer and $6.50 cheaper.

    Not a betting man myself... but...
    the words "two lists" come to mind...
    "can and will" vs "can't or won't"

    Now, financial ability does play into it as well.
    If one doesn't have access to a couple hundred bucks, then that is not a viable solution.

    $20 fills up my car but doesn't do much for a big truck.

    Should be 36 CPM... Unless they are giving you credit for prior driving experience.

    36 CPM to start
    37 CPM after 6 months
    38 CPM after a year

    But we are not supposed to run tolls in Florida.

    And that convenient toll by plate costs an extra $2.50 to send the company the bill.

    Edit: not sure how they would, or if they could, combine all trailers owned by one company or if each trailer would get a monthly bill.
