    Here's a fun local travel tip. If you're coming into ATL on I-85 SB in that area during morning (inbound) rush hour, you can use that Pleasantdale Rd. ramp Exit 96 to bypass a boatload of ramp traffic at the 285 interchange. Go across Pleasantdale at the light, as if you were going to QT. Or stop in a fuel island for a coffee. Then the SB on ramp to the left as you pass or exit from the QT will either merge into the flyover for 285 EB, or the Buford Hwy collector for 285 WB. Either way it gets you around the 3 lane gridlock on the main road for a savings of a few minutes.

    The real question is why did you go back? Even this fat trucker can't bear to eat there.

    lol she used to be a manager there back in the days before she didn't have to work anymore. All the #### that went on in that place I'm surprised she'd even go there now. Kinda like me and malwart. It's very very rare.

    It would be possible.... no fancy rest areas, just large areas that could be used for truck parking... with some light, portable toilets and trash cans... and all weigh stations... I know it's a dream because drivers here are not going to do anything to get what they want... Not enough interest, time, money, communication, unity, planning, enthusiasm, etc, etc, etc...
    And the government has been totally misusing our money for a looooong time... not doing what we need anyway...
    BTW.... I have been trucking for only 8 yrs now but reality trucking is sucking more and more... and very quickly... with all the crap we are getting... elogs, new technology in the trucks... regulations... bad attitude from drivers... making it more difficult for others... Enjoy what you can... but I don't see myself doing this for many yrs to come...
