TIA

Your best bet is to obtain a second transponder for the second vehicle as it will save you a lot of aggravation.
Many states provide a transponder for little or nothing so there really is no reason not to obtain one. I know Florida has a cheap SunPass version which is good up and down the east coast. You fund it and they deduct from your remaining credit balance everytime you trigger a toll.
Of course another alternative is to carefully plan your trip so you are able do toll avoidance (i.e. different way to get from point A to point B, but that sometimes can be a PIA).
Enjoy your trip and best of luck!
