Side questions, years ago FlyingJ was famous RV stop as at the time diesel price was comparable, they offer small discount with RV card and had propane, dump and water.
Lately I stop at one and have not seen those utilities anymore.
Flying J acquired Pilot. It seems some Pilots are upgraded to Flying J services and others are not (and probably never will be because the property is too small)). My understanding is that since it has always been Flying J policy to allow overnight RV parking, now all Pilots allow it also (although I have stopped in some small Pilots and couldn't find a space to park).
I consider this one of the advantages of a truck camper that I can back into an automobile parking space so I can park in front in a Flying J / Pilot since I wouldn't be comfortable parking in back with the 18 wheelers. When I am driving on interstates I pretty much move between Flying J / Pilots. They have gas, really decent food, groceries, overnight parking, and coffee in the morning.
There is a small gas discount at Flying J / Pilot with the Good Sam card.
I recall there is also an RV card which for some reason I didn't get it, I think because you got a bill at the end of the month so you need to pay another bill rather than charging gas to your credit card.
Many Flying J's have propane and RV dump (I don't know about water). Pick up one of the paper location guide booklets at a Flying J / Pilot and it lists services at each location. I think there is also a PDF of the guide on the Flying J website.
Just another advantage of a TC, park just about anywhere.
