    Allow me to type all the responses you'll get in this thread:

    I only stop at Mom and Pop truckstops. The Peelots and Love's are ruining trucking! Back in my day we used to look out for one another

    I would never stop there! Such a run down place.

    I'm only allowed to fuel where my company says so.

    I only stop at _________ because I have free showers.

    What's Road Ranger?

    I avoid all truckstops like the plague

    Main restrooms are finished. The one at Ottawa exit 93 is nice and close walking if you get there before it fills up. Not much parking there. The restaurant at the one at Princeton was also redone.

    Worst thing is points for purchases not used from pilot system although points are given on fuel. Coffee cups are paper now, and the coffee is much improved from what used to be boiler compound and was best used as aluminum polish.
