    I'm at the AC&T Travel Plaza in Hagerstown, MD. Plenty of parking here vs the Pilot which is packed. $8 shower here vs $12 at the Pilot. .....hmmm.

    I had that same scenario happen one night last winter in Kingdom City, Missery. Petro was stacked up with trucks circling like parking vultures, the place across the street had plenty of spaces. No showers there, though. And it was icy too, so crossing the street to get a shower might be slightly more dangerous than crossing the icy petro parking lot. It wasn't shower day, so I was ok LOL.

    I once had the opposite happen in Rayville, LA. That small truckstop with the Waffle House was packed and the Pilot across the road had spots.

    Whenever I am on I-80 I notice more female drivers than on other roads.... Not sure if it is just my perception though... Today 4 passed by me in less than 30 mins. Being a female, I like to see more lady drivers out here... :yes2557:
