      Thanks for the puzzle! I think 8D may be an error?

            I think Exit 0 is at the end of the Garden State Parkway (not the Turnpike) - a meaningful distinction only to NJers I realize 🙂

              right you are - I can't believe I messed that up!!! I'll fix it for future solvers. Thanks!
