I didn't think the roads were that bad. I-95 in SC could use some help but other than that they were ok. I don't do truck stops much, use gas buddy and have a BP and Kroger card. Just 2-3 days ago Gas buddy saved me 34 cents a gallon on diesel, about $14.00 on what I got. Here in the East the Sheetz and Loves truck stops are pretty clean. I don't fall for that flying J rip off if I can help it. Don't buy much in the souvenir shops. We hit one on WV turnpike where everything was locally sourced but everything was way to expensive. I think it was called Tamarac. I am traveling in a DP towing a Smart car on a dolly most of the time. Hey when you turn 80 you got to get going because you are getting closer to the end of the road, I can't see it yet but I know it is coming. Be Safe
