We used to go to Florida pretty regularly. Parking is a nightmare down there.you will be hard pressed to find anything close. I always ran it so my delivery was 1/2 way through my 11 hours so I could get the heck back out of there. I realize not everyone has the luxury to plan that but trust me, parking is a serious issue for anything south of Jacksonville or so
tscottme, singlescrewshaker, Bud A. and 2 others Thank this. -
@singlescrewshaker Any words of wisdom here?

Parking is pretty slim south of Jacksonville.
If you have the hours I would suggest PFJ on the Georgia side of the border.
Exit 1. There's a PFJ on both sides of 95. Pretty good sized lots too.LTL Bull, tscottme, singlescrewshaker and 1 other person Thank this. -
I live in Jax and run locally. I recommend Google truck stops, weigh stations and those fancy 100,000sf gas stations.
Keep in mind Biketoberfest in Daytona is Oct 18-22.singlescrewshaker Thanks this. -
Really gonna depend on how early you get down there. Like 3pm to be safe. Expect to pay for a spot, if you don't it's your lucky day.!
Best bet, Fort Pierce Peelot & Loves at the 129, & a fly'n Hook & Loves at the 131 both to the west side of i95. That about as far as I'd go. PS, all these places suck..
Could try the 595 truck stop a bit out of route.

How's your spanish..? Lol
Rarely do I come down i95. Usually come from i75. Lay up in Wildwood & grab Fla turnpike. If I'm awake enough I push past Orlando on the turnpike & stay at one of the plazas. Enjoy..

South Florida is terrible.
Northeast is easier to find parking, it's that bad.singlescrewshaker and LTL Bull Thank this. -
Wally World in Ormond Beach sr40 & i95 is a huge NOGO. But Wally World in south Daytona (1101 Beville Rd, Daytona Beach, FL 32119) was ok about five years ago. I've camped overnight in the semi and camped for three days & two fun-filled nights during a bike event. No issues from anyone.
