I have seen the entire back row open for parking. The front row full and there are no trucks parked in the no parking area. A truck will pull up and then park there and go in and eat.

ROFL :smt043

i used to joke with my husband and tell him i was going to make idiot citations on my post it notes ,then when i saw a truck that wasn't parked in a spot when there were ones open, or parked in the handicap space i would put one on their window.. it would state...you have just cited for being a idiot..learn how to park and stop being so lazy!"

i would love to see a gym, maybe a gold's gym franchise
also, i would love to see some shopping food, where the largest soda is not 20oz, and some actual healthy food (o, i can see the prices now, high as a kite)
i would love to see something automatic that forces guys to wash their hands when leaving the bathroom, this way, when i see them picking food at the buffet, i dont have to worry about tasting their pubic sweat -
A barbershop would be great. Couple guys, couple chairs.

They have hair cutting shops at some of the Flying Js now. Don't know if they're any good or what their prices are, though.Ms No Name 72 Thanks this.

Like everything else at the truckstop they are probably over priced. -
Only 77% want a Place to Park!!! LOL

The idea of a hotel/motel is nice, and some truck stops have them....but can anybody besides Jubitz actually offer truckstop motels that aren't sleazy, run down & disgusting?
Troutdale OR TA, Ontario West TA in CA, Paulsboro NJ TA....come to mind? Places on either coast where a lot of teams, expediters, car haulers, movers, etc....end their run & sometimes sit over the weekend or longer, waiting to load. It'd be SO nice to have a NICE CLEAN hotel available at the truckstop. But Jubitz is the only place I'll spend my money.
Something else I'd like to see is fenced "dog run" areas where people can take their dogs off leash at truckstops. Johnson's Corner in Loveland CO has one, as does one of the rest areas in Colorado. They offer poop pickup bags (I always pick up after my dogs & usually pick up any other poo I see in the area) but they also have the lot clean-up guy go in & scoop poop. The yard is always relatively clean when I visit.
So many truckstops have a LOT of grassy open areas & fencing in a small section wouldn't be too costly....I can't let my guys run loose & I get irritated when other people do it and their dogs run up to mine without warning. Lots of drivers have pets and I think it'd be a nice, safe way for people to exercise their dogs.
