I will only transit Kansas at night, and not on the interstate. Get up to 120 between hamlets, slow down to pass through, rinse wash repeat.

I do like how OK mailed me a warning for blowing a toll.

I can sympathize, and I live in Kansas....

10 to 12 hours to Denver is the pits, when in that same time span, I can be in Dallas....and almost halfway to Austin... depending on traffic in DFW.....

They don't accept IPass or EZPass. Only their bootleg Texas/Kansas/Oklahoma pass. Think it's called the Dust Bowl Pass.

Texas and Florida will mail you a toll fee plus fees. LOL Ask me how I know.

Depending on what part of Colorado we are going to or coming from. We will either take I80 or I70. Most times, it's I70. The one time coming home on I70 in Kansas. Got the bright idea of not going on the toll section of I70 on the eastern side of Kansas. So we let Garmin re route the trip. Spent 3 days taking a round about way around the toll road. All of that to save a few bucks. Spent more on fuel then tolls in the motorhome.

I use PhotoBlocker spray on my plates. The stuff works! Used to get tolls in the mail from Colorado. We travel on E470 a lot. Sprayed my plates, and no more tolls in the mail. Been going on for 3 years now.

We was going to Colorado one time on I70 with a new Garmin. For us, it's a straight shot on I70. But for some reason, in Indianapolis. The new Garmin routed us north on I65N to RT32W. 2 lane road all the way into Colorado. Talk about Mayberry towns. All the towns we came into had one intersection. On each corner of the intersection was a bank, gas station, mom&pop diner, food store. The road going through each town was called Main St.
