| I'm heading to Wendover, NV. I'm going to get there a day early so that I can hit the prime rib and cheesecake buffet twice before I have to roll again. Happy,happy, joy, joy. I like to get in a jog over there, too- free showers! :D [/i] |

Wendover has always been one of my favorite truck stops (not truck stop, but place to stop the truck).
I also always liked stopping at Little America, Wyoming. |

Little America is nice to look at. Really, it' just a beautiful place in the middle of nowhere. I don't know that I've ever stopped though. What's actually there? |

| I stopped at a place on us 395 called the topaz lodge ones b4, I realy enjoyed that. It's not a truck stop but it's on the Nv/Ca border, good food, nice view. Postcards would never do the place justice. |

It's just a nice truck stop. I haven't stopped there in years, though. It's possible it went down hill. But their shower rooms are pretty amazing. I've never gotten a room there. But I always liked their truckers lounge area (different building from where they let the "normal" people go... haha). |

I stop at Little America all the time when I pass by. The drivers lounge has huge leather couches and chairs and a big plasma screen. The kitchen window serves really good food and rotisserie chicken with all the fixings. The breakfast is A #1 also.
It is still a very classy and well kept place and the showers are like your at a 5 star Hilton.
I vote it the best truck stop in the U.S. |

| I stopped at Little America but since I had already eaten, I just looked around. Yeah, the area for the abnormal people, the grill, the lounge, looks quite nice.. I got my jog in here just west of SLC, after I get these shocks changed, prime rib and raspberry cheesecake! |
