San Antonio truck stops

That pilot in eagle pass isn't bad heavy ... always parking and showers are ok ...big store and food ok .

 

Depends on your taste ...i bypass San Antonio..yuk .

 

I disagree. There is a strip of about a mile from the truckstop in a field halfway to a hotel that is also on the hill at the next exit on the Houston Road eastbound. You can see a string of bobtails darkened ship waiting for their turn to be blown to heaven by a hooker working out of her car in the tall field grass. It's particualrly dark there.

It's not hard to feel slimy and dirty just going into some of those places around the truckstops when your eyes see and reveal the extent of human depravity at night in particular and most telling, the declining health of he people around with the skin cancers, bad teeth and sunken eyes and signs of dope addiction as well.

At one time long ago, San Antone was a good place. Fast forward to 2001 I listen to my wife tell me how disappointed and angry she was to notice all of these people engaging in behavior that is not healthy to try turning a trick and get 60 bucks in 15 minutes for the next hit of drugs or something.

Just showing up there in that complex made the clothes feel dirty enough that it needs to be burned. I quietly gave thanks that we were a team and all we needed was fuel. To that end we learned to fuel at the pilot in San Antone which is right at the NE corner of the major interchanges in that forest. Grab a pump, splash fuel into the thirsty truck, turn off the radio and keep going south towards Mexico with whom we have commerce to do.

 

just report what you observe to the fuel desk...they'll clear it out

 

You obviously haven't been driving long lmao .

 

Especially the last greaser I remembered had head lice jumping onto my shirt waiting to draw cash. I think I got em all. Euch...

 

That whole area been in decline since the early 2000s ..i pass it right in by !

 

lol, just how long has it been since you have been to the ta or petro in san antonio??? its has surely been some time ago, all these tales of the old days become legend like old fairy tales, lol. that was better than the federal marshall story,

 

Yeah ... I've been out here going on 7 years now .... seen maybe a half dozen lizards. But this guy X1heavy sure seems to know where they all are.

 

Its nothing like it was back years ago, but even at that it was often overblown no one bothers you at those stops, 36 years. Of it for me
