    Man I miss the Silver Spur in the Valley. Worst to me? That would go to... Well...

    It’s a tie really.
    1)Flying J KCMO
    2)Loves Tacoma, Wa
    2a) ANY Broadway J

    Old school me loved and misses the TA in Mesquite, Texas. Walt Whitman in Philly and a few others. Ft Wayne Pilot sucks a little bit, restaurant and bar across the street are the only reasons I would stop there. Is that bar even open anymore? Been awhile since I was up that way.

    All sorts of stuff on that side of Fort Wayne, including a strip club(Showgirls 1) right across from the Pilot. Just a little further east down Coliseum and you find all sorts of stuff from chain restaurants to another strip club(Showgirls 3).

    Worst truck stops I've been to...

    Tie between...

    Trexler Plaza, Allentown, PA - (All parking paid under threat of towing, not much in the way of hot food)

    New Transit Truck Stop, Millersville, MD (Restaurant so-so, if memory serves, paid parking/minimum spending)

    Pour Boy's Truck Stop, Kansas City, MO (within 200 feet of a railroad track with trains every 90 minutes, relentless lot lizards knocking on the sleeper, not much in the way of hot food)

    Pilot, Troutville, VA (Barely any parking and it's practically inaccessible unless you nose in and back out. BAD juju)

    PFJ, Winchester, VA (Parking is a nightmare and there are the remains of an old scale at the bottom of the parking lot that hinders traffic flow as you circle for a space. But hey, at least they have the good meatloaf I like)

    TA, Duncan, SC (Relentless begging vagrants who don't get the hint when your sleeper curtains are pulled)
