I think using a truck stop for overnight is inappropriate. They are designed especially for truckers, who often live in their trucks for days (even weeks) at a time. They almost always do not have another option to stop. And now with electronic logs, they cannot drive further and "cheat." Taking up a spot at a truck stop leaves a trucker with no place to stop. Go find a Walmart, Cabela's, Home Depot, and the like and park there. Or take a novel approach and find a campground to park!
I never park in spots for big trucks,but in parking lot near the restaurant,,have only pickup w TC so dont take more space then cars..
I dont like cooking so always buy dinner and or breakfast anyways..
Unfortunately Many trucks stops have dirty bathrooms,broken door locks so its not for squeemish
