Funny that EZ pass comes up...I went to school in Cambridge, MA and would drive home to CT. MA has "Fastlane" and when it first came out you had to pay money to get the tag and you couldn't order it online. After a while they reached an agreement with NY to have Fastlane and EZpass be compatible...you can order an EZ pass for free (if you use a credit card to replenish it) on line and they would send to you in the mail...even to a MA address. No surprise when all these MA residents starting sporting EZ passes! :) Thanks for letting me know it will work inside my saab, I have yet to transfer it...
