    I stopped using all the ones that closed their Country Pride restaurants permanently or replaced them with fast garbage. I'm imagining ALL the Country Prides will be closed sooner or later in which case, I wont use them at all. Same with the Iron Skillets. They can paint all they want and put chiars all over the truckstop. Means nothing to me. A good meal (as well as CP could provide anyway) at the end of the day is more important to me then paint and chairs

    TruckerLlew,

    You have taken the words right out of my mouth! I started driving way back in the 1960's and I would always appreciate stopping at a Pure, 76 or the old Truckstops of America. The chance to have someone fuel your truck, clean your windshield and sit down in a real restaurant and bring you your food. The good old days may be gone forever but as you said without a Country Pride or Iron Skillet they are not on my radar. Even with TA subletting their restaurants to IHOP it will not be the same but maybe better than no choice at all.

    I sorta think the change of venues might be that less drivers spend $$ there so the thought might be to have a better know name like IHOP which I don’t really care for but the masses driving across the country will be the target market. Not us

    I’m not sure as many drivers actually do much at the TS than micro their food and piss all over
    If that’s what they’re seeing then I get the ditch effort

    Big problem is they do not just piss all over, and the reaction from others , well when you have to go you have to go, ####ing pigs. Ya accidents happen, but clean up after your self. It doesn’t take much to separate you from the other barn yard animals, oh and ya there is a difference between human excrement and pet Dudy , maybe some of you got to taste it to know the difference, defending piles of #### around the truck stops , how do you know somebody did it?


    you from the other barn yard animals
