A little more info.
It looks like the only toll areas I'll be hitting are in IL and IOWA. I'm using the Trip planner from Good Sam Club website which has the option of no toll or toll route.
to avoid tolls in IOWA and IL it say go down 35 all the way from Minneapolis to Des Moines -->80 East to 74S around Peoria, IL, then south on 155/55 to St.Louis -64S to 24 to Nashville
When not avoiding Tolls its telling me go south thru Rochester MN on 52 to 63 to Cedar Rapids IOWA south on 218 basically to St. Louis.then 64 E to 24 South to Nashville.
After nashville both routes appear to be the same minus a small spot in Atlanta
Since we are doing a smokey mountain tour on the way home it has us going all the way to chicago thru wisconson for the toll route and going back through Iowa via 80W and 35N for the no toll route.
Anyone done these routes? is there better trip planning tools online?
Illinois Toll Roads suck, period.

The feds are pushing for compatibility between tolling systems, but SunPass is only compatible with several other Florida regional toll authorities such as the Miami, Tampa, and Orlando toll expressways, North Carolina's toll road near Raleigh, and Georgia's Peach Pass. EZ Pass, which is found on roads in the Northeast and other areas, is NOT compatible with SunPass and SunPass cannot be used on EZPass roads. Sorry!
For what's worth, Easy Pass (from some states) now works with the Florida SunPass System. My BIL is from Buffalo and his Easy Pass worked when he was on the Florida Turnpike.

Zion will always be there. Your daughter will only be six once. Sometimes you have to take one for the team (daughter). Good dad. Take the toll road.
