    I would always goto the 595 Truck Stop off of I595 and 441. they have a Large fenced in lot for long term parking or for a night or two. just $10 a day for their back lot. Or $20 a day for their Front lot. Their back lot is HUGE!!!!

    Thats where I usually stop in Miami. The price isn't too bad (just paid $20 in Ontario) but its still $10 for a parking spot and nowhere in the Miami metro is a great place to sit.

    Oh, and the restaurant doesn't serve dinner so come prepared. Nothing like eating a little Debbie snack cake dinner.

    I would haul Meat to Publix in Derfield Beach, and a few places near the Miami Airport. I would then pick up a load of from Coka cola in Arbendale and run to Denver.

    Some of the big food chains like Publix come to mind. Ran dry van down to Miami for Swift. Parking is horrible below exit 130+ on i-95, best places to run & park are along i-10 panhandle heading along gulf coast. Running reefers along that route (western Florida) & into the deep south you'll do ok!
