Truckstops of Old

The Petro in Milton PA in I-80. That was a nice place. I think it was originally All American. Then Petro had it for years and it was always busy. Petro sold it and it went down hill fast. Looked like someone tried running it as independent truck stop for awhile. Then had Flying J fuel. That did not help get more drivers I guess. It's still open today but it in bad

 

NETS(New England Truck Stop) Rt 20 just east of present day I84....50 gals fuel(full service) got you a month long shower pass...Treated drivers like kings...adjacent hotel/restaurant/tavern good folks
Nara Visa Truck Terminal NM...some of best Homemade Mexican Good I’ve ever eaten

 

I loved the Giant.

 

I liked that Giant in New Mexico.

 

Drove one just like that. We were governed at 64 then.

 

I had actually forgotten about Stoney Ridge, hopping place at one time….

 

The place off 70 in Warfordsburg Pa.

 

Drive up there from time to time to take in the RT.66 nostalgia. Along with some closed/burnt out motels nearby, the Tucumcari Truck terminal seems to be frequented by the street racer clowns. They seem to like using the empty lot for close quarter "Tokyo Drifting". K rail surrounding the lot. But plenty of gaps for even a semi to sneak through and take a 10.

 

I've only been there once, Bills on I85 in Salisbury NC has been there quite a loooong while, or so I was told.

 

Been there also.
