    1. Wild Wild West Truck Stop, Las Vegas, Nevada.

    Geat place if you like Vegas! Plenty of Truck Parking, Good Rooms 35$/Night, Casino, Denny's Restaurant and walking distance to LV Blvd(the Strip). Especially nice if you need a break before going down I-15 to the traffic in LA..

    2. La Haceinda Casino, Boulder City, Nevada, (Lake mead) near the Hoover Dam. Free Room for CDL Drivers, Huge Casino and Great Buffet!

    3. Petro in Corning Ca....hot waitresses and sizzling hot steaks! nice and quiet in the Valley on I-5 down from Mt Shasta.

    Nothing yet.

    I want seafood. Whole crab-type seafood. Or at least crab legs in a buffet or something. Haven't even seen a truckstop with a Red Lobster within walking distance, yet.

    TA, Council Bluffs, IA I29/I80 ex 3


    My faves:

    Grand Island NE Bosselmans. A little bit of everything and something for everyone.

    Little America WY I80 ex68. Same as above.

    TTT Tuscon, AZ. Great food. And once when I was there, there was an airshow which I could watch from the parking lot. Very cool!

    How's that one for safety? I usually avoid downtown TA's.

    That downtown Nashville TA is also diesel only, no gas. The article I read in Roadking emphasized that they plan on taking safety and security very seriously.
