| Has anybody stopped at the Farris truckstop? Just curious to see if anybody has stopped at the Farris truckstop off I29 in Faucet MO, I think exit 34. I stopped there last night with a friend of mine on our way from kansas city, and had a really good meal. The waitress was very nice, and the reasonbly priced food was also excellent. I haven't been to a lot truckstops but I really enjoyed this one.  |

| Yea, it's one of the last older truckstops that is still good. I think because Barlow trucking is next door is why it stays in business. |

| Love that place, good food and feels like the old truckstops i use to go to with my Dad when i was a kid. Nice break from the big chain truckstops. If you ever get a chance, stop at the Truckers Inn, I-90 ex266 in Nodine MN, just outside La crosse WI, Great homecook type food, good parking, and feels like what truckstops should be, good people |

| I agree, the farris is one of the great one's I used to drive for Barlow and we called that home I miss them very much, great people at the ferris I just could'nt make any money at Barlow. When I worked for Barlow a driver got paid 20% of their cheap rates ( usally around a dollar a mile ) but I did get a new pete if only I could take that to the bank and pay bills I wouldstill be there. |

| Running Late... When you were at Barlow, did you know Mary? She was married to a Ferris, since divorced. I worked with her when we both worked at TWA in KC. She married a Butler, relative of Butler Trucking in KC. Moved to Dallas with American Airlines but don't think she is there any more. To badI lostcontact with her. |

| I used to stop there once a week. But that's been about 10 years ago. I always enjoyed the place. Food was good and reasonably priced. Service was excellent. Would have recommended it to anyone. |
