    TA's can be hit and miss. The one in Gary, IN was a ######## 12 years ago when I last stopped there. The one in Atlanta was infamous. The ones in Eloy, AZ, Las Cruces, NM and New Braunfels, TX weren't too bad.

    There was a TA east of Dallas {Rockwall} that was real dump. Some of the old timers will remember the one in Dallas on Big Town Blvd {long gone now}. I was in city dumps that were better than that one.

    Pay to park is actually pretty rare. Usually in big cities where parking is at a premium. Or in Californiastan where they have successfully made the entire state a no truck parking zone. Speaking of pay to park. Has anyone noticed that the fuel stop across from the casino in mesquite, nv now charges to park? Middle of nowhere Nevada and these greedy idiots have the audacity to think they can charge to park. I hope they go broke!

    Was that the one between US80 and I30? When I was at Stevens we'd cash our comchek's there when we were stuck in the yard
    . We'd pile into the hooptie Chevy Corsica they had for us to use around town.
