"..usually get a motel at the end of the day..."...why? because when (uh-em....IF) you do a PTI you'd find your truck isnt safe to sleep in, or because the one-legged lot lizzards you're left with cant climb up into your truck?? Or you dont do the casino anymore, because they kicked you out because you cannot come up with the $121 you owe them for the past 10 years. So, by your own account, you fork out $40-50 for a hotel room, and $20 for a nice hot meal 5-6x a week. That is worse than a truck stop junkie. Sure hope you aren't an o/o cause you dont make a dime. but hey, if thats what you enjoy....be my guest.
Say, can you have your name changed on here? Need to call this guy Super-Diesel

So why don't you educate Mr. Diesel on where he should be taking his rest periods and all the fine dining establishments you know of where he can eat? I mean really, when that casino opened, I stopped in to see what the food was like...looked at the buffet....walked right back to the truck and drove on down to Dunnigan, where there used to be a decent diner. Don't understand why Big D even ate there.
I stay in motels whenever I am stuck somewhere for more than a day. I just spent the weekend at a Drury Inn up in the Saint Louis area. BestWestern, LaQuinta and Holiday Inn in get a lot of my business. When I lay over at Portland, I park at Jubitz and stay in the Portlander. I'm not a huge fan of the buffetz either. On I-5 I like the restaurant at 7-Feathers, the restaurant at Jubitz, the restaurant at GeeCee's, the Black Bear Diner, and a couple others.
Before you get to lippy....I have a TempurPedic mattress in my sleeper. Very comfy. I just prefer having a bathroom and shower when I have to stay in one spot for more than a day.
See...It's about the quality of life.
I know a guy who had a soft spot in his heart, for a "One Legged Lot Lizard". It was back in 83-84. David loved searching her out, whenever we were in Bakersfield. She really did only have one leg. The left one. David liked her...good enough that the rest of us..we left him alone about it. :hellno::hellno::hellno::hellno:
Please do enlighten us with more words of wisdom though.
