If I ask Google Maps for a non-toll route, it suggests jogging north on I57, and taking US6 through town for about 6 miles. Or you could take I57 north to its junction with I94, and take that south. That piece of I94 flows pretty well, or at least, did when I used to drive from Chicago to South Bend.
While not a toll, the piece of joint I94/80 that crosses the state border, is the busiest part of I80 that you will encounter until you get to NJ.
Pay the $3 toll !!You will pay a whole lot more tolls on the Indiana Toll Road (I-80) the full width of the state and the Ohio Turnpike all of the way across Ohio.
