I've been off the road for 12 years, now! Watching videos like this, made me realize how much I miss the open road! I remember going there back in the winter of 1997. Thanks for taking the time out of your day, to film this!
The Iowa 80 is the heart of America! A place that helps cater to the everyday pioneers, delivering all kinds of goods to us, and the basic things we need to have, in order to survive! Without truckdrivers, we couldin't pick up grocery's at the supermarket and wal-mart would be empty!
ya know watching these truck videos is just fueling my desire to return to driving. Its a hard life being a trucker. I know ive been doing this for 3 years. Now im college studying business and I want to persue being my own authority: owner Operator. Ill stick to company driver for now. Being a an otr driver is tought, but u can make the best of it. I still want to make some new memories on the road: Iowa 80 is one of them. great video
I visited the Iowa 80 a couple years ago during the Trucker's Jamboree event they hold. That was one of the most incredible places I've been to. Also, I sat inside that yellow Peterbilt. Nice video!
Great video. I saw a old picture of Iowa 80 and it was small compared to what it is today. Another good truck stop would be the pilot in Grand Island,Ne With accesories and plenty of parking. I would love to see other truck stops follow Iowa 80's example. some truck stops I will not go to because they are @@@@holes. I would not mind spending my home time or vacation time there. Again, good work on your video. I pray I will be back driving again so that I can go to Iowa 80.
Bosselman Grand Island, Little America in Little America & Iowa 80...absolute must stops. Don't forget that special list of those mom & pops that keep a fresh warm pot of coffee & clean shower & towel just for drivers!
Truckshow room is one floor, gift store and restraunt is another floor, convience store and fastfood places on another floor, got barber dentist laundry, showers, truckers lounge movie theater on the upper floor
Wow, this truck stop has EVERYTHING! What would make this place better would be a revolving door and maybe escalators. I suppose some of the facilities are closed or have limited capacity
This is one big truck stop, certainly puts some of the ones in the UK I've been to, to shame. Was at this truck stop a few weeks ago, while on a trip to America, visiting my girlfriend who lives between Walcott and Maysville
If this building wasn't built on the side of a hill, this place would be 2 stories instead of 3, but if you love trucking, this is probably the best place ever
i one thought your scooter was your truck but i really like the way this truckstop is and on my trip up tate like the trip to rockchester or buffalo and i saw some truckstops on the way
we have a chiro here at the truckstop. it would be hard to find a doc to work the same hours as the dentist and thats why we dont have a doc here at the truckstop.
when i went to the whole foods market in union square in new york city they had the same kind of kone elevator aand it was my first time ever on a kone ecodisc elevator. did i spell ecodisc right?
Walcott, Iowa, Thehotel that is way in the back of the truckstop where all the semi's fuel up, I think we own that but I am not for sure. I would have to talk to the owner or one of the headquaters people about that. I work out there and been out there for a few years now.
He drove for Martin at the time and was fired for making TH-cam videos He drove for a different company after that I believe he quit and went back to the railroad
This guy sounds like he's doing a video for a kids T.V. Show. (bad Mr. Rogers impersonation) "Can you say Chrome?.... I knew you could" LOL! just because of how he's explaining simple things like pushing elevator buttons.
If I had a green truck I would use all those lights during christmas time and turn it into a christmas tree..AND PARK IT RIGHT OUT FRONT!!! I'd be famous...
One shop hour for every fix why is that when time is money ? Gave you a thumbs up please return the favor Pilot can't totally take over the simi monopoly lol .

the best truck stop in the USA! I want to see anybody build a truck stop just as good as Iowa 80.
I was there twice yesterday, driving a load between Morris, IL and Omaha, NE. Such an awesome place!
Just went there saturday. I go there a lot. and I love it every time.
You are my hero, thanks so much! Keep on truckin'!

Came back to revisit this video! I got to go to this place just yesterday-currently doing my over the road trucker training… loved it
That is awesome!
1:37 That lady blaring on the speaker almost scared me!
It was loud!
Truckshow room is one floor, gift store and restraunt is another floor, convience store and fastfood places on another floor, got barber dentist laundry, showers, truckers lounge movie theater on the upper floor
hopefully i can do my planned US tour next year.
I'll def. go to Iowa 80 on my way through
Wow, this truck stop has EVERYTHING! What would make this place better would be a revolving door and maybe escalators. I suppose some of the facilities are closed or have limited capacity
1:37 That lady blaring on the speaker suddenly would scare me to death
damn, I used to think the Flying J was huge back in the day, but this place takes the crown.
Love that truck stop and the cornpatch cadillac yellow pete
AND A TACO BELL!
I could spend all day here and using all of the amenities.
Alot of people tell me that there are amazed on how big Iowa 80 Truckstop is. I been out there for over four years. I know alot about the truckstop
This is one big truck stop, certainly puts some of the ones in the UK I've been to, to shame. Was at this truck stop a few weeks ago, while on a trip to America, visiting my girlfriend who lives between Walcott and Maysville
great video, thanks heaps for posting mate, i enjoyed the tour
I live in Bettendorf so I've been there and been in that yellow truck you passed earlier cool video bud
That's not a truck stop, that's a dream! I would love to visit some day. Then Disney World.
i can't wait to get back to the i-80. i'll be coming back out on the road after being away for a year.
If this building wasn't built on the side of a hill, this place would be 2 stories instead of 3, but if you love trucking, this is probably the best place ever
Is this place still in business today?
Yes
i was just there 3 weeks ago on our way back from south dakota that place is huge
level 3 has driver's T.V. rooms, quiet room, Laundry, Massage parlor, & I believe a clinic if I remember right.
thats pretty cool, i'd never get anything done if i was a trucker, and i'd always request to go threw iowa lol
i one thought your scooter was your truck but i really like the way this truckstop is and on my trip up tate like the trip to rockchester or buffalo and i saw some truckstops on the way
The truck stop at Atlanta has now the Ikea Atlanta or a other store?
woow! thats big! nice kone elevator!
Iowa 80 is the best truck stop Ive been to.
Nice truck stop!!!!
Damn!! I drove from SF to NY on highway 80 and I didnt know about this. :(
TeslaRulzz4 ml
This one truckstop that i dont mind being stuck at for a weekend......even if your broke there is still something to do
yes, it's on the northwest side of Davenport.
That Truck Stop In Iowa Is Extremely Huge
They sure have come a long way since the run-down looking places on "Smokey And The Bandit"...
we have a chiro here at the truckstop. it would be hard to find a doc to work the same hours as the dentist and thats why we dont have a doc here at the truckstop.
Cool that you want to work there. If if was up to me, I would like to work at iowa 80 myself. Best of luck to you.
What is on level "3"?
& What is the largest level at this truck stop?
Geiselwind in germany is also quite big ? Which is bigger?
I thought the video was nice...I will be sure to show it to my children. The guy behind the camera took alot of time to do a complete walkthrough.
when i went to the whole foods market in union square in new york city they had the same kind of kone elevator aand it was my first time ever on a kone ecodisc elevator. did i spell ecodisc right?
Cool this place has everything! Thank for posting this Andrew!

Walcott, Iowa, Thehotel that is way in the back of the truckstop where all the semi's fuel up, I think we own that but I am not for sure. I would have to talk to the owner or one of the headquaters people about that. I work out there and been out there for a few years now.
It is about 10-15 miles from Davenport Iowa

@vinylman2288 They're on the other side of the highway at WalcottCB.
This looks like a really big shopping mall beacuse they have a food court.
Are you still a truck driver today?
Andrew Reams Is No Longer A Truck Driver He Was Fired
@@davidtheneveruploadedtoyou12 why was he fired?
He drove for Martin at the time and was fired for making TH-cam videos
He drove for a different company after that I believe he quit and went back to the railroad
This guy sounds like he's doing a video for a kids T.V. Show. (bad Mr. Rogers impersonation) "Can you say Chrome?.... I knew you could" LOL! just because of how he's explaining simple things like pushing elevator buttons.
next time bust out the diesel ducy song at one of the cashiers. That would be funny.
Miles of chrome for sure...
If I had a green truck I would use all those lights during christmas time and turn it into a christmas tree..AND PARK IT RIGHT OUT FRONT!!! I'd be famous...
