    They're just highway rest stops. They could be a lot worse.

    They're basically bathrooms and fast food places on the side of the major highways haha. It was a pretty apt description from CoD.

    I don't mind the enRoutes. They are what they are, and I rather take the negatives that they are and not have to drive 5km off my route to get gas or food which is what happens in a lot of the rural areas in the states.

    One time I ran out of gas on a 2 lane road driving through Northern Michigan as I didn't realize the next gas station off the highway was like a 20 minute drive away.

    Oh for sure. They're super convenient. Gas is always at least 5cents/L more at those stops though.

    That looks about right to me. A little more expensive the closer you are to the 401.

    I live in Burlington and it was $1.35/ltr this morning, and I work in Hamilton and it was $1.25/ltr. It varies so much based on city now. And, it was even a few cents different just across the street, and then a few cents cheaper just down the road to the places I pass going to work.

    I suggest everyone to use GassBuddy app.

    What can people tell me about pending tolls in the hwys? I'll be bypassing Montreal on the new 30 and on the 401 through to Guelph. Amounts and payment types? Is it cash only or can we use debit/Visa?

    I always thought the only toll roads in Canada was the 407 highway, and bridges into the USA

    I'm pretty sure there's a toll for that new part around Montreal. I'm just not sure much about it.

    Only toll roads anywhere close to Toronto are the 407 and 412. I don't know the MTL area well.
