    You get through the rolling hills of Iowa, too, Joe? Probably more than I do. Loves will have 5 locations in Iowa, with that one, TA still has just Iowa 80 and the one at Council Bluffs.

    Iowa 80 isn't corporate, it's a franchise.

    If there's a zip code, I'm there. True 48 states. Last 4 weeks I've been in 41 of the 50.

    Majority of what I do is coast to coast, spend a little time running the western states, a little Midwest, and a little southeast. Generally coast to coast.

    I know Chicago a little too well, myself. Better than Milwaukee which I also frequent. Going a little ways north now, and no Loves in this lane, although there is a TA at Rogers, MN.

    People are dumping stocks and they've missed every projection. Hard to compete with Love's and PFJ apparently. The quality of TA has been in decline a long time too, and that hadn't helped matters.

    The brand new Pilots have drivers' lounges as well. I stopped at one on 65 I think, in Indiana, it had a drivers' lounge.
