I avoid the Pennsylvania Turnpike whenever possible. It's one of the most expensive toll roads in the US.
The Turnpike Commission is required to pay the Pennsylvania Dept of Transportation 450 million annually. I believe it will drop to 'only' 50 million annually in 2023.
When I travel west from Harrisburg PA I take I-81 south to I-70 & I-68 west to Morgantown WV. Then I-79 north to I-70 west. It bypasses the PA Turnpike.
It is about 50 miles longer but, the extra fuel I use is cheaper than the tolls.
Sometimes it's more practical or quicker to take the Turnpike. But there are usually better options than the PA Turnpike
