    When I was working there I always routed around them. Except in the winter. USA would pay the tolls then.



    You would have to call and ask them. They have several regional runs out of Ohio and Arkansas that would get you home most weekends. It just depends on where you live.

    Falcon has added some ultra shifts. They are sweet in town. They are a PITA for tight manuevers. They don't engage until 825 RPM.

    What part of PA jughead? I finished up at Transport Tech of Butler in Mid-October.

    I elected to go with Falcon because they are close to home. I guess I wanted the familiarity of home as I break myself into the trucking bizz.
    Good luck and which TT did you go to?

    I route around Ohio, Indiana, Kansas, and Florida toll roads. They won't pay the $18.50 toll from Route 2 to the Indiana state line for the Ohio turnpike, so they buy an extra $50 in diesel. It doesn't seem to make sense to me, but those decisions are made above my pay grade :)

    I pull hazmat for USA Truck every now and then. I'm at the West Memphis terminal now, and there's quite a few placarded trailers here.
