    Doesn't Crete pay for the tolls?

    Duncannon will be interchange with US 15 south off US 322. Your main challenge is the 7 mountains grade eastbound downgrade. It's 8% for 5 miles or so.
    \
    When you get into Duncannon, there is several ways to get to I-83 south. Below York PA for Baltimore 695 east to 95 north.

    Your target is the Delaware Memorial Bridge, Vineland will be off US 40 on your right past the Bridge as the crow flies. Maybe 30 minutes or a bit more.

    Be patient with the traffic in the Baltimore beltway 695 north loop. Try for 11PM to 2PM only or after 8 PM and through the night until 4 AM. Otherwise it's gridlocked.

    There are many much smaller roads between 83 and 95 I can route you but I rather not. I can do it with a big rig but you don't know that area and there are a number of small river crossings and two burned covered bridges you might hit. (That you don't want)

    You do not want to touch 68 in western maryland and certainly not US 40 in western PA to western Maryland. Fort Necessity has a upgrade eastbound that will break your truck. It's not worth it. So... there you are.

    Bring me back some NJ pizza if you hit 202. And those ShopRite grocery stores have the best deli's. Haven't had a better breakfast croissant since I visited one last.

    Normally, yes. Crete pays for tolls that they authorize in their suggested routing. They do not like paying tolls on 76.

    My routing authorizes i-80 tolls. That said, I have not ever been charged for tolls, or denied repayment for toll charges. But I do avoid 76 tolls.

    I have not noticed any change in this as an o/o, but today I plan on taking a much closer look at my numbers, item by item, since I am on a 34, and not having any work done on the truck.

    Taking 30 thru Lancaster and avross 41 into Delware is the way to go. As for parking, no worries there. You have a wide spot on route 40 just before you get on 55, Walmart of Landis Ave, Walmart on 47 in Millville with a Texas Roadhouse out front:). & Major T/S all in Vineland. Also Carney’s Point (J, Pilot, All American) <<The All American has a Dunkin in it.

    ***Oh yeah, do some checking as to how early, but if you’re going to Luccas with a Walmart load they let you in early. May be able to take your 10 in their lot

    Are you going to Philly and then Vineland, or are you going directly to Vineland, trying to avoid Philly?
