    Adopt the Loves style of fuel receipts - auto printed and in a numbered vertical tray.

    Nothing worse than waiting in a line for a simple paper receipt.

    No, I don’t want emailed receipts.

    Too many TS parking lots are designed/laid out (apparently) back in the days of cabovers, with 45-foot trailers.

    THOSE DAYS ARE GONE.

    THUS -- design new(er) parking lots for today's longer rigs. Bigger parking spaces -- & also, more space for backing/maneuvering between those parking rows.

    Staff that actually get to cleaning the showers ASAP and don’t “pass the buck” to the morning staff!
    Lost count of how many times I’ve been to a Pilot and showers aren’t available because they don’t have staff to clean them! Basically you have to wait for their morning shift to come in!

    1- Definitely sit down restaurants and driver only seating areas. Enough with the fast food only places.
    2- Re-stripe the parking lots to be able to park 53' trailers without sticking out in the drive lane.
    3- Angle parking spots to be able to back in on the good so eliminating blind side backs.
    4- Install rv designated parking and keep trucks from parking there. Also bobtail only parking.
