    A new Truck stop in the Chicago area is set to open soon...

    Its off of 294 in between I-90 and I-94...

    It owed by "Amerifreight" which is a white Volvo company out of Elk Grove Village, Illinois...

    140 parking spots...

    2 things are for sure

    1. You will have to pay to park

    2. You will never find a parking spot...

    I never said anything along the lines of expecting it to be free...

    Pay for parking is the only way they'll survive
    Because I don't think they'll sell much fuel with cook county taxes

    They are building another truck stop(pilot) in Alsip,Il.
    @ 127th and Kedzie.which is 2 mi. East of 294
    I've heard there are plans for more in the Chicagoland
    Area.

    I don't know why they'd bother building a pilot there... Everyone flocks to big chain truck stops like ducks flock to bread crumbs. That place will be a fuster cluck 24/7.

    I drive a white Volvo. If I change my name to Boris, will I get free parking?

    But that road ranger off of California is enough space for all of us!
