Looking like great weather for Sat & Sun in the mid 80's with that small % of thunder shower. Don't hold me to it !! just here crossing our fingers for great weather for the weekend !!

Yes we use our Garmin 465t to get here. No problem. We also have it configured to avoid Toll Roads. Distance from Glenville, NY was a little bit further but great 2 and 4 lane with very little traffic. Address is about 5060 Hwy365.
Garmin GPS N43.10576 W75.60431

Verona and Oneida are different towns but in Oneida County. Maybe this will help.



Hope this helps

[Clymer]

OK so we are hooked up and everything is working on the BC (hehehehehe) better not say anything or the doors will fall off.

Our GPS picked up the Verona address on Highway 365 so we are heading out around noon see ya'll around 4:30 or so.

 

[dieselsweetheart]

Just programmed the Garmin so we are just about ready!!

I was planning to run 81 north to 90 east (thruway)... does anyone know what they hit us for a truck/camper on the thruway?

 

[truknutt]

I used the NYS Thruway Toll Calculator and came up with $4.25 cash/$4.04 EZ Pass. Take I-81 North to I-481 East (Exit 16A). At exit 6 Take the Thruway to Exit 33 (Verona,Rome, Oneida).

I entered a 4 axle vehicle over 7 feet 6 inches tall.

[mjatwalker]

Your calculation is correct. They charged us 4.25

 

[dieselengineer]

When I use the toll roads in New York with ezpass, I always go thru the toll booth with a person inside. New York automatic booths will charge you the 18 wheeler rate due to the height. Go thru the booth with a person and stop and say "RV" and they will type into the system the correct charge.

Do you have Skype? If so, we can hookup and have you on the big screen. It will be just like you are there!

 

[truknutt]

Hey then you can lead the way and pay for me at the same time!!! I can swing the $5.25 (5 axles) and feel obliged to pay since I never had to pay NYS Income Tax for 21 years while I was on active duty.

 

[truknutt]

Good Deal!
