    Setting in Atlanta 285 South t/s. Idle Air has this special. 5.00 for 6 months 10.00 for 1 year. Is this worth the money?

    That's probably just to join not for the actual service.

    Now I am not concerned with this idle air information as much as the "beautiful truckstop" information

    Their rates that I saw on sale at the Petro in Claysville, PA were $1.85 per hour. Other places I remember seeing a special daytime rate of $1.99 an hour.

    That is just a "Gold Membership" subscription fee.
    The "GOLD MEMBERSHIP" gets you a LOWER "Basic" rate, LOWER premium television, LOWER internet, etc.

    You decide if it is worth it or not.

    You are right RoadKill. After asking some questions, I found out that was just membership..I asked if I could join just to get a good parking spot. Got a real dirty look. Guess she did not find that funny....

    Not sure currently, but, previously, you did not have to buy time in order to use an idle aire spot.
