    Dumb question. Is there a split after the exit, that says pky these lanes and 87 in other lanes?

    Yeah the parkway has its own exit, you just stay on 87.

    77,000 pounds going down hills in PA. With the Jake I can go down the hill at 65 mph. With out it I'm at 45 mph, so I don't burn up the brakes.

    It still doesn't make much sense.
    Jake or no jake you can still go down hill at 65mph. But is that a wise choice.
