No and No.
You will be hard pressed anyway to find rest stops that allow overnight parking.
That's what CG's are for.
It's suprising there are still camp grounds around the way so many travel and don't use them, instead using a store parking lot, don't sound like fun to me, we will keep using campgrounds.
I understand your post but what fun is stopping at 1 am at a campground, getting up at 5:30 am and being on the road by say 6? what FUN can a campground give you in those circumstances?
only fun thing I see in this is disturbing your other campers snoozing for the night while you get your site and another more fun thing is paying $45 for 6 hours. not my idea of fun when I am looking to stop for about 5-6 hrs tops.
we stayed at a few rest stops with truckers. it is not 'true' overnight, it is a stop to sleep, eat, unwind from hard driving. like 5-6 hrs. every time we stop at rest stops when we wake at about 6 am the truckers are mostly gone and a few campers are still there. ones that pulled in way after us late at night.
What fun is to drive until 1:00 am? Plan your days better and relax in a campground.
