    T/A, Morris IL. Was hoping for Gary, but can't make it in 4 minutes. :(

    ETA: lots of parking that isn't next to that old diesel APU, showers are huge and clean, 2 towels - I think that's a T/A thing (a definite plus in my book; hard to dry off with the mop on my head dripping everywhere) - and the R Place restaurant was most excellent. A bit pricy for regular visits, but not bad for occasional dinner.

    No, I didn't move. Too lazy.

    Good riddance, that place is a hole in the wall. Obviously the Pilot across the street is worse, but I don't even take that place serious enough to mention it.

    I never even stop in that area. I hate messing around with that stupid TA in Troutville. Not enough parking for everyone that tries cramming into that pain in the butt parking lot.

    I either stop at Whites or I usually try to make it to the twin Flying J's in Wytheville. I never have any parking issues on I-81 unless I've tried stopping at Troutville and also around the Winchester area. That's a big no no going to that ridiculous Flying J in Winchester.

    The Hess by I-66 with the Loves across the street almost always has parking until pretty late. There's also another dead truck stop a bit down the road where Bowman Apple products is located (Mt. Jackson exit, like 250 or 255, something like that). Free coffee there too when I bought nothing from the place, at least from the guy that was working that morning lol
