    I drop my trailer the the customer yard on the corner of Jarupa & Mulberry, then just bobtail over, don't have to worry about finding a spot in the evening.

    I don't like either, but Fontana has posted signs now stating no Commercial Vehicle Parking on City Streets, and the randomly cite for it, don't ask me how I know. Cowboys or Farmers Brothers work for me, but if I have to, I usually park at the Petro.

    The one west of Milliken that used to be a 76 is a TA. The one on the east that used to be a TA is a Petro.

    Ok I remember which one your talking about that’s the one I normally went to because the lot lizards didn’t knock you down at that one unlike the west side

    The TA there is pretty tight parking lot the taco Bell in the place sucks, but the other restaurants pretty good. they charge $20 a day for parking unless you buy stuff save your receipts if you give them the receipts on your way out they don't charge you. I was there just over 14 hours and saw three different wrecks in the parking lot. Armed security guards patrolling the parking lot. 5 toilet stalls and hundreds of trucks in the parking lot do the math on that. People with turbans, Russians, every culture under the sun driving truck in the parking lot. Felt like I was in a third world country. The only thing good about that truckstop was they actually had chopped up vegetables you could buy right by the cashier counter one of the only truck stops I've seen in a long time with anything healthy to eat in it.
