    I stopped at the TTT in Tucson last weekend. Just do to hours, and what was going on, I couldn't take the truck by the house, rented a car.

    Anyway.......

    I was severely disappointed by the T.

    They are now charging for parking.
    The bathroom has turned into a real #### house.
    The restaurant is full of old nags with attitude. I'm thinking everyone is still in the 70's, but I have some really bad news for them. Service and food were mediocre at best.

    I used to advocate the T, but I no longer can. It could be a great place with some fresh faces I think. And unless that happens, it will be just another place people point at on their way by, saying "That used to be......"

    Yes. I have not been too impressed the last few times I stopped in. Didn’t know about the paid parking. How does that work?

    And it’s too bad because parking at the Pilot requires skills that many simply don’t have.

    Be a good place for a Petro 2 once completely remodeled and the lot upgraded. Even an independent running under AMBEST might stand a better chance. But it won’t survive past another 12 months on this trajectory.

    Your stirring up old memories Dave. Does anybody else remember the bumper sticker from the truck wash about 40 years ago

    You should have stayed west of there at “The Thing” truck stop. Plus they have a Dairy Queen

    It's convenient 5 minute parking for the Circle K next door.
