I say strip down all the so-call conveniences inside the building and be straight up a place for fueling/showers/parking. No more overstocked w/junk food store, no more fastfood. Just the bare necessities. Boom! Who is happy now?

All they have is crap. Crap food, crap service, crap mechanical service, they need to get slapped by someone.DSK333 Thanks this. -

Face it, Travel Centers of America HATES the trucking community. And is deliberately driving the trucker away.
If we quit parking there, they can tear up the lot (leaving just enough for the shop) and sell off the excess land. Instant profit plus long term savings in property taxes AND staffing requirements.buddyd157 Thanks this. -

I've been platinum with them for what will be the 7th year in a row this year.
There's no doubt they have a lot of problems, but they also have some good perks. I like the $300 a day free check cashing. A free drink for anything over 75 gallons is helpful.
They definitely have fallen behind in the food service. No matter if it's the country pride or iron skillet the vast majority pretty much stink. The C store food is mostly awful.
The lots being decent are a case by case deal. I find the ones on the east coast a lot more shabby, but the piss stench is not a company issue, it's a driver issue.
I don't like seeing places that are 50% or higher reserved parking now, but people are paying so they're going to cash in.
I think there's too much conspiracy theory going on around here. All the companies are ######. Just pick your poison.whoopNride Thanks this.
