    I like NYC and Jersey City area. I just don't like the tolls. I look at the bridges for damage, then ease under them. Look at your Rand McNally map. It shows the danger ones. Most are on FDR Dr, Harlem River Rd. and a few tunnels.

    Those people know how to eat good. A man was BBQing whole chickens in a small lot one day. I stopped and bought one. Some of the best chicken I ever had.

    It would nice to have a national transponder where you run the toll roads/bridges and you get billed after the fact......Running through the Bay Area....I have learned to carry a small banker with me to pay the bridge tolls.....:biggrin_25523:

    I just came from New Jersey to Escondido, CA for $4000.00

    Been there many more times then just once!


    If you know how to drive, you don't need a dump valve. I don't have mine hooked up. and I know for a fact BW9 doesn't have his hooked up either.

    EZPASS! I know it doesn't mean #### for California, Oklahoma, Kansas, Georgia, & Florida tolls... But it works every where else.

    Well Redd, I know when you are ready to turn a corner you fart and magical ferries come out of your behind, float out the window and pick up the back of your trailer and swing it around for you.

    Seeing as how I dont possess this kind of magic, I run a dump valve simply because it is easier on my tires!

    Easier than magical ferries isnt it!
