    Tolls in Chicago, San Fran, Dallas, Denver, and tolls in the middle of nowhere in Kansas amd Oklahoma. The only thing different about the northeast is we have better food.....

    All three of those places can be really scary in the wrong neighborhoods, and we usually have to deliver there. Only bad one I can think of in the NE is Jersey City. Philly and NYC and Boston are tame compared to Chicago, Dallas and Atlanta.

    My spent my whole career in the Northeast, no big deal, it's all I knew ! I saw an article in the Ct paper once that said Rt 95 is the worst truck route in the country. I would have liked to seen more of the country.

    I'm born and raised in Baltimore, I hate going northeast. Baltimore isn't too horrible, just remember the good looking hookers are cops, the ones that look like they are dying of a disease are safe, and the forty guys that need two dollars to put gas in the cans they are carrying around are scam artists.

    I'm here for the money. There's no place I won't go for the right price. From Mexico to the Territories. I will go to hell if you put enough money on it.
