    Second that as well. Pulled in there one time and that was the last time.

    Yup. Right next to the Food Lion, 1/2 block directly south of the 74/71 interchange.

    If you looking for a good place to stop overnight go to the J in Oak Grove, KY ( I-24 xt 86 ) They always seem to have spots open. There is also a Pilot ( old Williams T/S ) at the same exit. You can also go down to xt 89 and there is another Pilot. That one seems to fill up quick. I have never heard of any big trouble in any of those spots. There is also a rest area off I-24 before the TN state line, They have security on site also.

    I think one of the best truckstops is Southfork Truck Stop in Gurdon, AR ex 63 off I-30. They have a humongous parking lot and you can always find a spot no matter what time of nite you get there. Has an EXCELLENT restaurant open 24 hrs where they have catfish and steak and such all at a fantastic price. I try to always stop there if I can time it right on my route. No one ever bothers you there at all...............Another decent one is Smith's Grove Truck Stop in Kentucky off I-65 in Smith's Grove. Also has an excellent kitchen and sit down diner with buffet and all attached and no worries there being bothered there either
