    PA turnpike is what killed ya. Our company has to give us special permission to run it, with a few exceptions. We either plan on running 80, or 70/68/79/70.

    I've got the pre pass plus, Pre pass for scales and ez pass built in for tolls, doesn't help much for the FL turnpike though.

    I need to check on those. But I don't plan on going there anyway. I also have pike pass for OK don't really use tolls in Texas at the moment. Check the prepass website it will tell you where it works

    Boss says we'll get pre pass when we get the elogs. I'll just get EZ pass on my own, no biggie. Had no idea PA pike was so expensive. I guess it's not something you really think about when you drive someone else's truck.

    And to top things off, went thru Louisville today. More ****ing tolls. There should not be any tolls on federal interstate highways. This is something that the govt should pay for as a priority with our taxes. It's a responsibility of the federal govt to fund roads, and it's not a responsibility to fund the other 75℅ of the crap that they're currently funding now.

    It doesn't say on any sign. But searching the net, it says $12 for trucks. EZ Pass or license plate capture.
