    I'm trying to get a better grasp of the issues within the industry that negatively impact my drivers. What are the worst things that are encountered at the average truck stop across America? I understand that a big issues already is the lack of truck stops, meaning a lack of places for people to park their trucks.
    Thanks

    You should invest into putting a taco truck at every truck stop across America.
    I usually go off route a mile or two to get some decent food. When I think about Wendy’s Denny’s Taco Bell my head stsrts to spin.

    Actually 19 so far if post count matters.

    For me, the good truckstops of the past has been dynamited, land sold and built a parasitic big box store on the property many times. Instead of supporting the Industry with a home away from home filled with all sorts of Trucker stuff and good food to eat and so on, along with the occasional libation for off duty etc. They have been eliminated and a giant Costco or whatever has been built in it's place sucking society dry.

    In a generation or two no one is going to remember a #### thing about many truckstops long gone.
