One of these routes is better than the other for me. 0.3 gallons of gas and $2 in tolls versus 34 minutes of my time.
You're nuts! I'd gladly give up half an hour to get 50% better MPG. But that's me. I drive 60 on the freeway. With virtually no mods and a sub box in the trunk I've got to do something to beat the EPA numbers.
