As far as the oasis parking in chicago, you know, or at least you should know, sometimes, no matter how good you are at planning, you can get stuck at those shippers or consignees a lot longer than you expected, then run out of hours and only have the choice of parking there, if you are to keep it legal. It seems to me, if you only want to stop and get something to eat or such, if you have the time, then you should keep going to you reach the wi. line or wherever to get something. I've been to a lot of places that I would have liked to have stopped at , but couldn't. I didn't cry about it though. Chill

Interestingly, the Oasis has a 2 hour limit for car parking. They should make it 2 hours for all. Those places are not campgrounds...

Whine and cry about it.
The car time limit is during the day to keep people from free parking and commutiing. They say nothing about nights.
What about the service plazas on the Ohio Turnpike?
What about a rest area?
Next thing you will complain about is that you need a reserved spot.Last edited: Jun 23, 2012

The service plazas on the Ohio pike (especially those nice new ones) have MUCH bigger parking lots. Apples and Oranges. They even have free showers for the drivers.

I understand what the poster is saying here especially at this place, I had no clue it was pay parking, i rolled in late and just got lucky that someone had just left and opened up a spot. It was being woken up after falling asleep buy this not so pleasant guy, and being threatened to have your truck towed if you dont give his 10 bux right then.
I have no problem paying for a spot and in areas like that where the options are limited then you should expect to pay. But Make the signage better.
Oh and to someone elses question, I did have the breakfast and it was good.
It's not a bad place and now I know that if I'm likely to run out of hours delivering up the street have 10 bux on me. -
delta5 Thanks this.
