    Im very sorry to hear that. TTT was our recovery base for loading in Nogales AZ otherwise we ran east as fast as we could go.

    I wonder is that stupid parking lot still a moon scape with craters? I suspect it would be more than what the whole property is worth to pave it proper.

    It's not too rough in that fashion. And they still do light mechanical and PM's.

    I remember the Vernon Truck Wash stickers everywhere back then. I also remember 40+ years ago the TTT had a parrot at the fuel desk for whatever reason,and a big sign "Don't Teach The Parrot Cuss Words".

    I wasn't going to say anything because I thought maybe I didn't remember it correctly but that's what I was thinking when I first read Dave's post. I stopped there a long time ago thinking it looked like one of those cool places like Jubitz or 55 truck stop in Bolingbrook and when I got walking around it was kind of dumpy back 12 years ago.

    That stand alone by Iowa 80 is up for auction.

    That's supposed to be an icon.

    Boondocks.

    Times change.

    Some California company bought it and plans to re-open it.
