I don't know if anyone knows this, but they use runoff water from the nearby hills to supply the showers... I don't think I'd take a shower there, but the parking is ok...

I had the pleasure of spending the past 2 days at the Pilot in Madera, CA. I have to say, that is one nice truck stop. Ample parking, plenty of room to get in and out of parking spots, IdleAire on the OUTSIDE of the parking lot where it should be, and my choice between a Subway, Dairy Queen, Wendy's, Quiznos, Denny's, and a sit down Mexican restaurant. Clean bathrooms, and a nice spacious store.
If only they were all that nice. 12 years of driving and you think THIS is a great truckstop? The lady at the back door who helped me find a phone book to get a cab to come get me and take me to a BAR, was pretty nice..... but, that place was crowded and PACKED! Parking lot no different than MOST Pilots, and laid out WORSE than ANY of the "new ones." I could name at least 5 right now with the SAME "layout." But then.... I usually frequent Pilots with MUCH more room than this one.... and I can name about TEN of them! What are you doing back in CALI anyway? I thought once you were clear of "floored," you would stay in the Midwest where you belong!
