Does anyone know if the TX tag, EZ tag, and Ktag are ok to use on RVs? I checked on the TXtag site but couldn't find anything specific to RVs.

The one for Class C comes with instructions to place it in the lower part of the windshield close to the middle of it. You are charged $40 for initial deposit and a monthly report is sent to you by email. This is what I have. In IL, we use an I-Pass for all vehicles. You also need a credit card on file.
the cameras count the axles and charge appropriately

scottydl said:The other major advantage in Illinois is that with the I-Pass, the tolls are half price (compared to pulling over and paying cash/coin). That's more than worth the $10 net cost of the transponder. With some Chicago area tolls nearing the $5 range now, the savings add up fast. And we only use ours a couple times per year. I just set the transponder on the dash when we are nearing a toll and it works fine. Otherwise it stays in the center console in its anti-static bag (or whatever that thing is). Every so often, I log in online and check my balance to make sure there is enough for our next trip.
When we had our motorhome, I'd occasionally get lucky and only get charged the car rate. But the systems now are usually smart enough to catch the extra axles and/or larger vehicle and charge accordingly.
