Wondering if I'm being penny wise, pound foolish here.
Just took a 9 hour drive to another state. Route 1 has a portion of the road that is a $6 toll. Route 2 detours around the toll, but adds 20 min of drive time. I went with route 2, but am wondering what others might say.
Eh, at 9 hours, 20 min isn't that different IMO, I'd probably go around as well. That said, if the speeds are the same and you're using a gas car (i.e. it's adding about 20 miles), it'll largely be a wash. I'd instead prioritize the path that's prettier.
