    Or just a place to park really, it doesn't have to be a truck stop. I'm going to be around MM 240 on I-94 and all my truck stop guide shows is a handful of small places that probably fill up by early afternoon. Thanks for your help.

    Unless you know your way around Detroit I wouldn't bother going in till you have to.

    I really can't help much more since its been years that I've run around that area and I know alot has changed.

    The only TS was the Jungle at the corner of Miller and Wyoming. Last I heard they charge to park there, plus there isn't anything there anymore but the little place across the street.

    Why not stay at the Detroiter or that T/A or one of the Pilots south of town on I-75?
