Dunn, NC . Exit 71 off I95. It is a Kangaroo-Pilot. All was well, showered, ate dinner, went to bed. Had two very attractive working girls BEAT on my window, not the normal knock. Each time, waved them off, figured it was the car hauler parked beside me, since he was in a tight spot, but nope, girls wanting to make a buck.
What are the safest and most dangerous truckstops??

As far as decent truck stops in Illinois; the Petro in Monee, Ill. off of I-57 was pretty decent. The showers were clean, lot was pretty big on both sides of the road. Typical Iron Skillet Restaurant, but the service was very good and waitresses were friendly. My trainer stopped there twice when I was in training, and I stopped there regularly when hauling to Chicago or Joliet. Also the T/A at Effingham wasn't too good, but there was another stop across the street from it with a decent store and restaurant. Can't remember the name, but it was a privately/ independently owned place. It was also surrounded by other restaurants like Ryans and such. The Road Ranger in Champagne on I-57 was also a reasonable stop. Good showers and acceptable cafe style food. There aren't too many top notch truck stops in Illinois, but there are some "acceptable" ones if you know where to look. Don't ever stop in Chicago, Gary, In. or the Pilot in Joliet. "Dumps" is a nice way of putting it.Last edited: Mar 20, 2011

The worst truck stops I've seen were TA's . The worst was the TA in Bloomington IL. Int.55 in IL is pretty Truck stop starved so this TA is always filled up. I had a run-in with a Werner Driver the first time there . second worst was the Pilot in Mosinee( I think) hard to get in , hard to get out.

LOL I would NEVER use a hooker. I'll feel safer sticking my .... into a blender. One time at the Fontana TA I had my wife with me when a hooker knocked on the door at 3:00 AM "Do you want some company?" I said "Wait a minute. Honey do I want a hooker?" To which my wife yelled "Let me get my gun!" LOL You should have seen that lot lizard run!!
That stop rips you for twelve bucks for 'security' if you don't get X amount of fuel then you spend your time watching thieves, grifters, and hookers attack every truck that comes in. -

I parked in Amarillo one night. At the Pilot across from the TA? I think that's right. No complaints really, although I did have a good time watching the hookers. It was hilarious. They would come on the CB and advertise. They would ask the drivers to go to channel 5 and negotiate their services. Then the cops would come in and the hookers would jump into somebody's truck till the cops left. If it got too heavy the hookers would run across to the other truck stop. Well I walked inside to get some dinner and saw a few close up. Pretty girls. Still I'd rather stick my dick into a blender. I feel it would be safer for me.
