Big Cabin on us 69 and exit 263 on I~44 in NW Oklahoma has a good rest shuttle and showers hope its still open used to love stopping there. The Giant is also great in nm. The stage coach is supper but pricey on the meals but for a nice stop ill pay the extra. You gotta love this board it's the bomb just totally rules.

the petro on 75 in ocala is all right if you turn off you cb with all the advertisment going on you cant talk for a ten miles radius. but my all time favorite truck stop is i 70 colby ks they have recliners in front of a big screen a graet place to relax, its not never over crowded, and very clean. For all of us younger guys who enjoy nice scenery its a pretty popular stop for the college girls just down the road. (not that I look) :lol:

By far i think Petro has the cleanest showers. Although those TS's up off I-80 in Nebraska are pretty nice.

Bosselmans in Grand Island. Two movie theatres, big screen tv's with couches. CB store, haircutting place (I think), arcade, restaurant, some taco place, subway, and a nice sized store. Also very clean.. and they play tropical sounds in the bathroom... WOOHOO!

The place is located in Louiseville, PQ, at exit 174 on Autoroute 40 (also known as the "Autoroute Rive Nord"). From the outside it doesn't look like much, but the restaurant was incredible!! How many truckstops do you know that serve lobster bisque, steak tournados, rainbow trout, and black forest cake? Even the plain old "bifteque aves sauce bruin" was delicious. I gained 40 lbs during the year I drove Quebec, and this place is more responsible for that than anyplace else.
For those of you who find yourself on the road between Montreal and Quebec City (just a few clicks before Trois Rivieres), stop there and try the food. They have English menus for those who ask.

My all-time favorite truckstop is one that I used to frequent back in the early 1990's, when I was a Canadian dedicated driver. I can't quite remember what the name of the place was, but it was one of those typical Canadian "highway stops" that catered to all travellers, trucks included. The place included a restaurant, motel, even a bar. Back then it was an Esso stop-who knows what it is now, though?The place is located in Louiseville, PQ, at exit 174 on Autoroute 40 (also known as the "Autoroute Rive Nord").

I don't care about the bells and whistles at a truck stop, unless I'm doing a 34-hour restart.
All I care about is easy parking. When I get to a truck stop, I'm tired, I generally have to pee, and all I want is a ncie empty lot with pull-thru spaces so I can just *stop*.
Later, I'll notice if they have a nice store, good food, or whatever. But all I *really* want is easy parking.
