    Let Cracker Barrel start the bidding, set the reserve at twice the highest price you hear it is worth... Way I set my baseline on equipment...

    May want to check on cost of reserved spot verses the regular spot.

    Ontario is now spend $50 in the store/shop and you park for free, can be over a couple of receipts. If you fuel at TA/Petro looks like the fill 60 gallons or more for free spot works still. I used to just pay for a reserve spot with points.....

    Across the railroad tracks there is a regional burger joint called Farmer Boys that I recommend. It's worth the waddle.

    No comment on the PFJs, Don't think they were around last time I was down there.

    One way that I use often.
    West on I-40 from Kingman to Needles. Take exit 144 to US-95 south. Follow that to Vidal Junction, turn right on 62. Follow 62 to I-10, I-10 into Ontario. About 300 miles.
    Not much help on parking other than what you have mentioned. We have parking at customer locations.

    Ive always been of the mind that cow #### creates a better "patina" than dirt.

    My Grandpa's estate sale is this Thursday in Menan... I just set out half a dozen license plates on one of the tables in the shop earlier today.

    There's also a fully restored John Deere Model 60, not sure if its going through the estate sale or be sold through some other means.
