    I should of went to the TA in wheat ridge instead but i came in from amarillo so this was closer. the wheatridge truckstop is a decent place to stay but the facilities are worse than here. this place isnt bad inside its really new and nice but parking is a pain. guy backed in next to me and hit the truck on his sight side

    If you park at the tomahawk in Watkins and walk out of the NE corner of the parking lot across the road there is a little bar called Lulu's that has cold beer and pretty decent food. It is way better than the crappy stops in the city and you can always find parking out there.
     
    MJ1657 and SHC Thank this.

    Good luck on the affordable part Ron!
    Now at the Loves in Encinal,Tx. Woke up at @4am with a splitting headache and ghost toothache! Hope that was the last of it, and it didn't get infected etc....Not looking forward to a visit to a Laredo dentist!!!!!
    Told the gal at the Petro in Carls Corner to stuff it, when asking about a PM on the truck.
    Electronic sign said "No waiting", so I pull in to find a 45 minute wait. When I asked about the sign, she said it was "to get guys in here":biggrin_25513:
    So I then say OK, give me a shower and I will wait, and use my time wisely. The conversation..
    Her "cant give you a shower until I write you up"
    Me "well write me up then!"
    Her "cant do that until I get you in the door"
    Me "absolutely not, I get PM's at TA's and Petro's all the time, never heard such drivel"
    Her " you must be mistaken"
    Me "too true, forget it I'll get it done elsewhere, as if you dont know how to write up a PM and give a driver a shower, I have little faith in the guys in your shop"
    Her...blank look on face.
    Idiots.
    Got to wait to call the customer in the morning, as my GPS, Streets and Trips, and Google cant find the supposed address in Laredo!
