    No one will agree with that.. it's a huge lot, and they serve good food. Only problem is it's only 2hrs free. But that doesn't qualify as worse..
    Oh yeah there's a crime problem in that area. Still not even close to worse truck stop though, lol

    The worst truck stops? Hmmmmm Any truck stop that requires payment to sleep for the night, especially if they aren't that special of a truck stop(exit 38 of I-65 Smith's Grove, KY) or any truck stop that has super minimal parking....all of which are on my do not stop list. Flying J, Winchester, VA probably wins for me

    It’s a #### show. As most stops are in Georgia.

    Good food? Thanks for giving me a laugh.

    A similar thread was done about a year ago. The Pilot in South Atlanta off the loop was nominated by many.

    You know, that J/Pilot is even worse now that I think about it...

    The Loves at exit 412 in Dandridge, TN gets an honorable mention. And any Loves in general...

    The Loves in Denton, TX on I-35 is horrible. It's impossible to pull forward after fueling, because you block the entrance for cars. That ends up with a LONG wait to fuel.

    Sometimes the design of a truck stop can make it or break it. A moron designed that Loves, but perhaps they are going to close it in favor of the new one across the freeway from the TA.
