cochran's-exit 345 ,I75, ringgold,ga.

hmm.up in the air here.plenty of decent parking, as in wide and plenty of room to manuver,fuel price is close to the roo's across the street,showers are clean BUT you must walk thru a smoking area to access them and they are small and dated and w/o any additional hooks to hang your stuff on,and the staff is very friendly and personable.

my indecision stems from the high priced grill-close to $7.00 for 2 egg and cheese biscuits and the fact that you must walk thru a smoking section to get to the showers.

parking can almost always be found though so that superceeds many gripes.it is an old school t/s without a doubt and does have a small but stocked chrome section and plenty of bulbs/lights and all the necessities of trucking.

you also get to hear the truck wash gals carry on w/the drivers and can hear some really stupid stuff.i sort of enjoy hearing the stupid stuff simply because it is truck drivers at their best and worst.lots of humor-

 

yep.i parked under the sign back then and do so now.creature of habit perhaps? i am not sure regarding the junk status although it is certainly not the 76.it does seem as if the owners are trying,incrementally, to bring it up to snuff.
