    Go across 80, drop down on 99, get on 322, take 15 to 81 to 78 to PA 183 to US 222, then IS 422. Its more mileage but if you dont have to pay the tolls, I wouldn't do it. Taking many back roads ain't bad in PA.

    PA turnpike rates are EZPASS $168.80 CASH $235.20

    Going up across 80 then down is 61 miles farther but Free. 10 gallons of fuel ($30.00) and 1 hour of your time. Which way to go?
