it’s the only major US city that you absolutely MUST pay massive tolls to get into,

Without a doubt the highest, that's why the rates for us is so high to go in.
The tolls for the city run were around $60.00 which include the 1 trip from NJTP exit 13 to the GW, the GW and the trip back on the pike, to exit 13, considering it was only 112 miles start to finish, yes a lot of money, still just another operating expense, and if you cover the expenses, you can still make money.

That second part seems to be where I hit the speed bump. Everytime I think I am getting ahead...I take two steps backwards!!

Hey, we ALL hit speed bumps, sometimes you don't feel them, sometimes you can be wounded real bad.
This year has been s speed bump. I've had the gloves on all year, my arms are tired, but I'll keep swingin'
