    I'd say mostly truckstops near major cities. Atlanta, Memphis, Baltimore, Little Rock, Dallas, etc.

    I always tried to avoid Bruce's truck stop in Bakersfield California as well as the other truck stop right across the street

    Stay away from the ones with the crossdressers or fruitcakes. Unless your into that sort of thing.

    I know I'm reviving an old thread, but I have to ask, what's a log book? ;)

    It’s kind of like dr suess but for truck drivers. Usually just works of fiction.
