That's one thing I wish the GPS travel apps did is show you comparison of toll vs time saved (without having to turn it on and off and manually calculate the difference)
5 min on a 3hr drive...I'll avoid the tolls.
1 hr on a 3hr drive, I'll happily pay an extra $10.
Most stand alone GPS units allow you to do this very easily. All you do is change the settings from "avoid toll roads" to "fastest route". Then it will give you the mileage and "estimated" time of arrival. The arrival time is based on the speed limits which are sometimes not accurate for an RV but it still only takes a couple of seconds to find out the difference between taking the toll road and avoiding it.
You missed my point...I don't want to have to keep turning the settings back and forth manually to figure it out.
Seems like a common consideration to look at cost vs time saved...should be an automated feature.
