    I can help(maybe) with a spot not too far from P-cola. Exit 53( if I'm remembering keerectly) in Bama. The Oasis Travel Plaza. Big parking lot, good diner. Every time I left Salinas was going down and catching 40 across. Hope that helps.

    Thank you for sharing your experience and opinion... You have yours and I have mine... For me, it is NOT about the $$$... if it were, I would not be doing this... But even if I didn't need the money, I think I would still be out here doing what I am doing...
    I don't expect anybody to understand me or even agree with me... I guess most don't... and that doesn't matter anyway... :biggrin_25512: They live their lives and I live mine.
    I agree with you about the BS that took away most of the fun in this job... I was referring to that in my previous post...

    14 hours ran out at Newberry Springs, CA. Parked it at that Indian owned joint at Exit 23.

    Heard they made good Indian food but not brave enough to try.

    Half the fuel island has trucks parked in it with curtains drawn. Guess that's the VIP section, lol.

    If you cruise by on 40, you can see my truck, I'm parked along the fence.:D

    I stopped at the Love's in Tulare to grab a shower and a Gordon driver was cleaning up after another driver, I'm guessing making a uturn, caught his hood with his tail swing and proceeded to destroy the left part of his hood.
