I believe that's now Cowboy Burgers and BBQ. Can spend 10 bucks eating or pay 10 bucks to park. No fuel or anything just a huge burger joint with tons of truck parking. Foods darn good and they give you alot of it. Or did when I happened upon the place a year or so back. If anyone has to stay in fontana it sure beats the big twin truckstops.
Its at 11673 S Etiwanda Ave.
Might need to consider changing the name of this thread to "truck stops 35 years ago" talk about a classic lol

I can't confirm but right before Christmas i made a run down 85 outta Virginia into north Carolina and it looked like the old Chex truck stop was shuttered, even had the cat scale sign pulled down.

If you ever look at the parcel record for the land stations are on these days you'll see some really sketchy stuff.. None of it's domestically owned it's some oblivious citizen usually from another state who is basically a surrogate for foreign investors...
None of that quality of life stuff matters anymore just like with planned developments and track housing going up everywhere...
I was born in '80 and all those places were still around and doing good business across the continent, so whatever happened did so in the late eighties or early nineties.. -

The fact is they either sold out to the corporate truck stops or they weren’t that good to begin with and when a better truck stop came along it put them out of business. -
The mourning is hypocritical.CosmoK12 Thanks this.
