I am very grateful for this post!!!. I'll be visiting these areas soon and had no idea of the toll $ituation$. Definitely appreciate the intel on the Uni Pass.

Re: Looking for information on PA NJ NY tolls

Last I knew, and I believe it is still true, the bridges in NY only charge eastbound traffic. From VT, we would run our trucks down I-91 to I-95 South, Cross Bronx, GW Bridge. On the way back, we would run Route 17 North to I-287 to I-87 North (NY Thruway) and the toll all the way up to Albany was less than the bridge tolls, PARTICULARLY the GW. Now, we would run 2 lane roads back to VT. If you run the Mass Pike, you'd probably lose all advantage.

Please be advised - this is just in case - you can not use a commercial vehicle and trailer on any Parkways in New York. You can use an APP like Ways or Map Quest if you get yourself in trouble be you'll need to put in for a Commercial Route because our Parkway bridges are low, height wise. I don't know the size of your vehicle, but all of our commercial routes can accommandate anything else.
Possible best travel times on GWB and Cross Bronx are from Midnight till about 4:30 AM and then from 11:00 AM till about 12:30 PM. After that - it's a crap shoot ! You better be on your toe's also any lane including the shoulders are fair game. They'll cut you off on the right and then tell you you're wrong !
It's New York baby and the natives don't take prisioners!
Enjoy your Trip.

Well, I'm a NY native. I've driven through there many times. I know it won't be a fun part of the trip.
