Insanely tight truckstops

I'm trying to remember one somewhere. Only spaces across from the fuel and those are pull in/back out. Tend to get sent there often.

The only one mentioned I have experience with is Prescott, AR. It's generally just a fuel stop as I'll cheat the book to get to the company yard in Little Rock.

Speaking of Little Rock the Loves at the 161 is HORRID!

I'm at Pilot on I-80 x256 in "Drums, PA" and it's kinda squirelly.

There is of course a no idle law in PA and there is a certified clean Cascadia idling next to me. Hope he leaves later!

 

It is a Love's was just there a few days ago.

 

I-71 x204 in Lodi, OH is not the worst but it ain't the best either.

Weather is quite pleasent. So trucks on either side of me are idling. FUGGERS!

 

The Pilot in Rochelle.
Has two rows facing each other that are not even 53 feet apart.

 

I was amazed to get a decent spot at this Pilot in Caryville, TN at I-75 x141 at nearly 8pm local time! Not insanely tight or anything.

 

There was a rest stop off 65 in MO that was really tight. There's just enough room to pull in and the CAN be enough room to get out, provided someone doesn't pull forward too far. Angled parking, but if someone pulls up too far, you'll have to back out and go out the way you came in.

 

There's a Pilot center in Fort Meyers, FL that is horribly designed. The parking spaces are slanted and designed where you would have to blind side back in. Worse is that the place is usually packed by 3pm. So unless you have a helper or are very comfortable at backing your trailer towards someone else's truck I wouldn't attempt it.

 

I'm at a Pilot in Shepperdsville, KY on I-65 at 121.

Slanted parking in the middle back to back with 90 degree everywhere else.

Does NOT look like enough room between the slanted trucks and the space across from them for comfortable backing.

Was dang near full when I got here but I got to setup a straight back into a slant.

 

Nominating again both the OP (FJ in Aurora) and the FJ in Tacoma.

Aurora is the one place where there was a spot that I just flat couldn't do. I've given up trying on my fair share of funky spots and moved on to greener pastures...but Aurora was the only time it was flat out impossible.

Tacoma was the place were I had my KW 660 fender cracked by somebody in the wee small hours. I had gotten into my spot okay earlier in the day, but in the night the guy left of me took off, and somebody wanted the spot. He didn't get the spot, he got a pretty daub of blue paint on his trailer tail.

Impossibly tight, both places.

 

There's plenty of those! Those date back to the 80's before 53 foot trailers had come around. Lot's of 48, 45, and 40 footers being pulled by cabovers back then.
