I'm not sure I've ever encountered a vending machine that accepts $2s, though certainly I've encountered some that accept $5s.
I'm kinda surprised at the life span of a $1 bill per https://www.federalreserve.gov/faqs/how-long-is-the-life-span-of-us-paper-money.htm . I thought it would be measured in months rather than 6.6 years. Having said that, while coins are more expensive than bills to produce, they also last much longer (30 years and longer).
The lifespan of a $1 bill was months back in the 90s, but two things happened:
1) people use less cash now, so it wears out less quickly, and
2) Someone at the Fed realized that the scanners that they use to detect when bills are damaged were sending all bills that were fed into the machine upside down to the shred pile, since they only had the good bill image to compare to in one orientation. Oops!

I'm extremely grateful that you have not modified the default theme with either construction zone orange or florescent yellow indicating it's temporary. Those tend to be two colors often in use in construction zones.
Or, did I just give someone a bad idea for next Monday...

Not a fan of the ugly routing, but then again that's commonplace in Arkansas. It's nice to see something atypical happen with a US route.
So when is Google going to get on board with US 78? How is the signage in the field?
