    "That place used to be a nice place." It has a dirt lot. It was never a nice place period. Even a gravel lot is a red flag that a stop might be questionable especially if there is even a hint of paid parking.

    My family and I go to a antique farm tractor show every Labor day weekend. We always book a room at our favorite Super8. Just recently it got bought out and is now run by a Packistani. We had made reservations months in advance. We we arrived, they had canceled our reservation a day before. Then they were charging us double the rate we had booked for. The whole place was disgusting also. We have run into of Packistani run places. About the same experience.

    A one stop shop for forced alignment jobs, torn mud flaps, drug paraphernalia, athletes foot, the food poisoning, 3rd world credit card scams, and whatever that weird rash is...and you have to PAY for that luxury.
    DEFINITELY a taste of Pakistan!
    There really needs to be some sort of minimum requirement/regulations for truck stops.

    Truckstops are NOT what they use to be. In 1974 Union 76 truckstop was the major truckstop. The big orange ball in the sky could be seen a mile away. Drivers had their own place to sit and eat. They also had bunkhouse where you slept. You were provided clean sheets, pillow and blanket. You were treated like a real KING OF THE ROAD.

    It's today's investors. Foreign, and domestic. Buy it . Drain it of every penny you can get out of it, with no money going into it. Sell it, and move on to the next one. No family owned, pride, just parasites in the country. No particular religion either. Good, or bad.

    I know this truck stop very well, I used to drive for greyhound and had a run from Houston to Texarkana, this was our stop for pick up. This is not a great place. The former own was extremely nice and asked that I let the passengers out to shop, I had no problem with taking a few minute break.
    It was never a go to place for me when driving trucks.

Then 6 months or less it looks like this. When I see a sign or trailer that says a taste of whatever,I keep going,I will not stop because I know that it's like this or worse and I don't feel like tearing the drive line outta anything. I-85 at exit 5 in Tarheel I won't stop and that was a nice place years ago and now it's a dump

I was like wha that hell the I got myself into. I parked and stayed in my truck. I wasn't going to pay or buy anything. There is no way the I even will reach for my wallet at all !!!!!
