ORD update? Was curious about the length of the drive from Austin to SA and saw this:

The highway is noted for having the entire route with a speed limit of at least 80 mph (130 km/h). The 41-mile section of the toll road between Mustang Ridge and Seguin has a posted speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h), the highest posted speed limit in the United States.

Can confirm posted 85 this morning on drive down from DFW.  Toll Road so we had out our change and $1 bills out.  No need its either Texas version of KTag or "pay by mail."  They have cameras shoot pix of your plate as you pass the "booth" and mail you the bill.  Will be interested how long that takes on a rental car.

One of you needs to volunteer to maintain a constant watch on Bill and see if he looks quity at any point.  Also, choose a friend or current wife (or any other capable member of your party) to keep an eye on Sean and see if he looks like a guy who is all pumped up for his promotion, or if he instead looks all upset and like his current lifestyle is about to over and has to go get a real job.

If you are part of a large group, it would be great if you went ahead and assigned yet another person to eyeball Dimel as well.

Choked up slightly at the pep rally while thanking all of us wonderful fans.

you'll get a bill in the mail within a month or so from a third party who handles them for whatever rental company you use, they'll tack on like a $15 processing fee as well

That's so Texas. Compelled business relationship.

rental companies do that in every state with toll roads

It can be worse than your estimate.  I took a rental car through one here over summer and Hertz declared that by incurring a too, that I'd opted into their toll service at $5/day for the length of the rental, plus paying the toll.

On the drive here, Gooch & I drove the Budget truck through some stretch of CO that apparently was a toll road, and I'm just now being asked to pay the toll + $10.

was it E470 by the Denver airport?  I did that without knowing on a work trip and got like a $20 bill a few weeks later

Drove a rental on E470 back in July.  Still have not received a bill.
