Cool, I'll have to call my buddy. He's coming back from Vancouver on Sunday and the cheap bastard was planning to avoid the Coquihalla just cause of the $10. :rofl:

wouldn't it cost him more on gas then 10 bucks to go the other way?
I never actually went the other way since it was like an hour longer or something, drove there a ton of times but always through Coquihalla

Sounds like a friend I have, to save $10 directly, he'll do something that will end up costing him $20 indirectly.

that's really cool, that $3 toll per car on the port mann bridge is going to be brutal though

Yeah but a $6 round trip from India to China, isn't really all that bad.

The Coquihalla is probably one of my favorite drives. Huge hills plus you get random rain all the time. $10 wasnt too bad to save like 2 hours on the trip to Vancouver.

Yeah, I really hope they keep it in as good of shape as it's in, I always assumed a portion of the toll was to pay for such great upkeep.
