They charge $15 to park there! No thank you.
Don’t get enough money from fuel, store, so they want $15 to park? KMA.
That article makes it sound like they are so nice. I don’t even consider any TAs in my travels. Not even a player. They’ve tried all kinds of bs public relations campaigns. Drivers don’t want the hassle of paying some corporate franchise leaching off Trucking companies, uppity truck stop trying to charge to park. Fuck you
