Heaters

I love these heaters in the walkway at the Petro in Gary, Indiana. It helps warm you up after that long cold ass walk that stretches from pump 1 all the way to the parking lot.

You stop at the Petro in Gary? Sir how do you walk at all scraping your massive balls on the pavement. Isn't that place terrible??????

The Gary stops are not even that bad. Now, West Memphis, - that's a different story

My company has a lot of freight that goes in and out of the Memphis area. I make it a point to never stay at any of those truck stops. I’ll travel to the Love’s in Holly Springs and stay there.

Unless it’s past 2:30 PM and the place is packed already. I rock with that one Flicks place a few miles east in Potts Camp.

East memphis just as bad. They tore down the hoe motel across from loves and are building another gas station.

You are thinking about the Ta at exit 6 across the street from Pilot and the Hood 🤣

I’ve gone across the street from the TA to the Philly Steaks & Fresh Lemonade to get their namesake food items. Was decently okay. They had a line out the door after midnight. Id go back if I had to park at one of those shitholes again, as long as it wasn’t freeze-your-tits-off degrees outside.

It was worth going there when you could get the Jamaican jerked chicken across the street at motha trukn BBQ.

Nah it's a pretty alright joint, parking lot isn't terrible, just tight. Couple of good places to eat out front, Perros bros gyros gives you a lot of food for what you pay. Like, split it in half and eat the second half for lunch.
