    They have a great new facility, 3 clean showers, bigger C-store, paved lot holding 20+ trucks at any given time. I do not work here, just giving an update.

    It's a typical facility with Pilot fuel, as in, good luck finding a parking spot. Dont waste your time jumping off here, youll most likely hafta keep goin if you plan to park. Not being a jerk, just being factual

    Market Street is also full of craters, so it's a rough ride in off 57.

    Pilot and Road Ranger

    A perfect example of 2 wrongs don't make it right. I don't like either one of these chains.....

    Just went by Minonk, IL (I-39 @ mm 27) yesterday. The shell is now a Road Ranger/ Pilot. There goes yet another decent place to stop. Wonder what they'll do with the restaurant? Good grief.....
