    i am not going to be anywhere near a truck stop in the near future and saw on the forum people paying up to almost 60 for them. need it for school with millis in april and was tryiing to get my crap together as early as possible. know something will come up as time gets closer, hopefully this will free up some time when the crunch gets in high gear.

    Some of the truck stops will sell 'last years' at half price or less around this time of year. The rules and roads haven't changed that #### much in one year.

    the best truck stop book is a not anywhere near a truck stop, but check out the camper store,like brass pro-or sheel's , yes they have a web site, they have a very neet book in there , called the last exit or something like that, not only they list all the rest areas, but all the wall=marts as well

    I brought the 2012 edition of this book at my Pilot for about $5.00 and it's pretty handy, it tells you everything at that exit.

    Love this little book, it's a life save and I sometimes get OCD about where I am going to shut down and it helps that it's handy if you stash in your reach.
