How many are willing to patronize the petro in Ontario California with this in place??

well, glad i don't have to deal with that crap.

you can all thank the low-lifes that park forever and a day and ruin it for everyone else.

 

Thank goodness for our Jurupa Valley terminal, that Petro and the Pilot across the street from us is a zoo!

 

I would still go there if I ever went down that way again. That Petro and the TA are godsends in that area. It's definitely worth the money. There's nowhere else to park and you can look at that newer Flying J down the road that has mostly free parking and see how often you can actually find a spot to park (Hint: Never). If Petro and TA didn't charge to park in Ontario, then there would never be any parking there. It's the same reason that the I-55 Greater Chicago Truck Stop is considered one of my favorites for parking, because they charge. If Greater Chicago didn't charge to park, there would never be any parking there either. That's just how it is in the big cities. I'm actually grateful they charge to park at this Petro and TA in Ontario.

And as for that particular Petro in Ontario, $30 per night is very reasonable, as is the $50 in receipts. You also need keep in mind that the area is actually WALKABLE FROM THE TRUCK STOP with actual sidewalks and crosswalks, meaning you can go hang out in civilization on your break and head down towards the mall or the food places down the road. Tons of shops and restaurants in that area. That alone makes the $30 per night reasonable, to be able to walk in (normally) great weather and be a part of regular society outside of the truck stops.

 

The problem is,even when they charge for parking that Petro is still full every which way but loose. The only time we would go there is if we had fueling issues at the terminal(at least until the Pilot was built).

Having said that-**** that ****hole!!

 

Pretty sure you have to be a two or three time felon to work at that Petro.

 

Californians hate truckers anyway. Just don't drive there until all the normies and wokes have to pay ten dollars for a loaf of bread. Oh, wait. It's already ten dollars? Twenty, then. Or thirty. Whatever it takes to get through to them to return to the real world the rest of us have to live in.

 

Funny, because how much income does CA make off trucks ? Look at all the ports and produce market alone.

 

That place has been full for decades. Not going to change anytime soon unless CA digs up more truck parking

 

There ya go.
Folks abused the system. Bad apple spoiled the barrel.



A Rotten Apple Really Does Spoil the Barrel

 

It would also be easier if they had ten more spaces instead of those stupid islands with light poles in the middle. They should've put the dang lights behind the curb, in line with the parking stripes.
