Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

No way would I give up Matlock for this insanity. After as many years as we’ve put into this thankless industry, Matlock wins hands down.

 

There’s no loyalty anymore either not only with trucking.. used to be back in the day that you busted your butt for whatever company you worked for, and they noticed that they would take care of their employees above and beyond to make sure that they stayed with them… Now frankly companies, don’t care if you bust are behind and go above and beyond the scope of your duties they’ll still screw you over… That’s why many these days don’t care and only look out for themselves, rightfully so and their families…

 

There a TA and Petro, and a Loves opened up a few years ago right across from the blue beacon

 

This is so true it hurts

 

Yup. Petro didnt have a restaurant if I remember right....or its the other way around with the TA......

 

TA doesn’t. But the Petro does.

 

Petro has an Iron Skillet but TA is fast food only.

 

You beat me to it John Boy. I'm getting too slow in my old age.

 

Back when the Iron Skillett was still a buffet, they had a Hispanic Cook that made outstanding Mendudo...I would stop just to eat it with nothing else.

 

Went to Walmart and got back to the yard and found a roofing nail stuck in one of my drive tires. Breakdown sent me up to TA to get it looked at. Hopefully not an all night wait.
