The Truck Parking Problem & One Driver's Solution

We all face it. Every single day of our lives out here on the road, you plan your trip around where you can park. In states such as Virginia, who have closed 1/2 of their rest areas, you could easily run out of hours on your 11 or 14 trying to find somewhere to stop. At one point there are 122 miles between rest areas in Virginia.

But, there is hope for us all. His name is LeRoy and he is determined to give us all some pertinent information we need. We met LeRoy tonight in NJ at a service center. We run for the same company and he walked over to the truck and introduced himself.

Long story short, he is compiling the ultimate parking guide. He has places in this book that we all have only dreamed of. He's got places in FL... on the beach and close by. He has deals with certain truck stops for discounts on coffee or showers. He has free wi-fi spots listed and the list goes on.

The guide is not yet published but check out his website at http://www.parkmyrig.com/ and you can sign a list of people to be notified once he gets it complete.

The book will retail for $29.80 but if you'd like to contribute to his masterpiece with information on rest areas or truck stops on your routes, he will provide you with a discount on the book. (If you email him, through his website, include as much information regarding the stop as you can... exit number, rest area open/closed/truck parking, and number of spaces (if available).

Check it out! I saw an example of what he's compiling and it would greatly help us all out! Thanks everyone!
