    This is probably old news but it was news to me so I figured I'll just pass it along anyway. The Love's on I-4 x49? 44?...aw heck, it's the only Love's on I-4 in FL. Well they had some construction going on and now their parking lot is about twice as big as it used to be. Oh and they have a tire shop on site too now.

    On the plus side: more parking! more places to creatively park a bobtail.
    On the negative side: it still fills up about 3p

    As opposed to the one in Dallas at Exit 466 on I20 that never actually empties out!

    Not only that but I see the Pilot on US-27 in Haines City is open!

    Well it probably has been open but the last time I was down that way it was closed off. Then demolished for awhile. and now..yay a Pilot! (with a Denny's)

    It is Exit #44. FYI, There is also about room for another 50 trucks or so to park between the mom-and-pop station across the street and behind the BBQ stand. The Pilot in Haines City has been open about 6 months.

    How is that BBQ stand? I saw it. It looked tempting.

    Never tried it. But I did have to park behind it one time. Love's was my hometime parking spot. Came back the next morning and moved the truck over to Loves. A couple of rest areas just east of there as well. One in each direction.
