We travel from No. New Jersey To Fl several times a year on 95. HH runs 12-14 hours depending... and I allow $10 each way for tolls. There have been increases. On our last trip we took 81 (through Pennsy)down and it was a much better drive. No tolls, no traffic. It was a few miles longer,but a shorter trip. We cut across and intersect 95 in Santee,SC (we stay at the Hampton Inn). Depending on where you are in NJ this might be a alternative.
