DD is about to be PCS'ed to Tracen Petaluma and wants to take her vehicle even though this could be limited to a 3 month assignment - and then moving again. Nonetheless, I have been trying to do some research on EZ Pass thinking this might be a useful acquisition. To complicate the matter though, she is currently based on the east coast (at Atlantic City). Can anyone please provide some insight to the following questions:
- I have given up trying to find one EZ Pass (by any name) that will work on both coasts. That does not seem to exist yet.
- As Petaluma is north of San Francisco, even though she will only be there for 13 weeks, am I correct in thinking an EZ Pass (I believe the California version is FasTrak - correct?) would be useful for her during this stay. What I cannot tell by looking at the maps is how many toll situations will she have to deal with north of San Francisco (in and around Petaluma)?
- Given that she will be based in Petaluma, I am guess the best option might be the Bay Area FasTrak account. Given this little info, is this likely the best option?
- It appears there is a plate pass and a transponder pass option. Is one preferrable over the other - keeping in mind we have no idea how much it will be used?
