what's wrong with a brothel? I wish I'd thought of it.

Brothels were a strong part of the economy nation wide until WWII

Mostly everyone wants a pool...but the major question is...out of all the truck drivers that's going to visit the truck stop...how many of them you actually is going to shower before getting in the pool?...plus swimming in a pool with a bunch of men isn't to pleasing...atleast when i'm in pools around the city or beaches...i see ladies looking all sexy...i wouldn't swim in that pool...

But i think that truck stops should have catering service...where you can just stay in your truck...order food and someone brings it to you...so if your doing a PTI or just don't wanna leave the truck...then you got someone bringing you food...

How much would you be willing to pay for the delivery? If enough guys were to use this delivery service to their truck, even an extra buck or two would make it profitable and worthwhile for the truck stop.

Healthy food. More variety. They sell what 7/11's do, but they cater to people that are living on the road, not just teenager getting some pop. Exercise room is a good idea. Buy a monthly membership and TA for example, and it is good at all TA's. Some need a bit more parking, even an overflow dirt lot or something.

how about bathrooms out in the parking lots, like an out-house, but self-cleaning. so guys dont have to walk to far to the building, cause i dont no about you guys, but the near thought of walking between trucks that smells so nasty like old pee really makes me think twice about wanting to keep my shoes on while im getting back into my truck, where i live, and wanna be comfy and take my shoes off and relax, but the thought of that old nast pee makes me keep me clean my truck floor at least once a day! AT LEAST!,

I saw this discussed in Pilot's magazine. Basically, the response from Pilot was: "get somebody [your favorite healthful food place] interested in partnering with us" (that is, reading between the lines, get them to pay us rent). The other response was "use a fridge and keep good food on the truck".
