    Transvestite or not . Taking 30 at the pump is pure lazy , I guess if you pull through and nobody is behind you, no harm no foul ....but still, laziness breeds more laziness

    Oh yeah, just pull out of the way and sit and stuff your face.

    I was jusr trying to paint a picture, I don't care what you wear and who you have sex with as long as it isn't children. It was just a funny image.

    I forgot where it was, but the food sucked. Somewhere in Texas off 10 or 20 though.

    I'll still take it over any FJ/Pilot because Haslam is a thief.

    I've been telling folks not to stay anywhere down there for years. It has gotten to the point now that fuel haulers won't deliver down there after dark. Another little truck stop down the road that someone is shot every week. You are seriously risking your life staying down there after dark

    The Pilot in Indy has a bar practically right in the parking lot with people hanging around outside at night. Not the safest-looking place I've seen.

    When I first started I would stay out of all inner city truck stops but now I don’t care. People don’t bother me and I don’t invite unwanted attention. I just parked in the pilot in Gary the other night had no issues and the showers are clean which is really my only gripe.

    That said I will avoid parking in Loves if I can just because there are more rookies at loves and I have had my truck hit while sleeping in loves
