    As a retired long haul trucker, I have to say that this is one of the least offensive videos on trucking I've seen. To their credit, they ask reasonable, intelligent questions, genuinely seeking to understand the driver's life. For a tiny, encapsulated view of life on the road, this is a really good video. And the Iowa 80 trucks top really is one of the best. I used to stay overnight there regularly.

My wife worked in the trucker’s showroom until she decided to retire. She met a lot of truckers during her years there and she really enjoyed her job. If you come back this way, be sure to stop during the annual Truckers Jamboree, which is usually held during the week after Independence Day. If you really want to see some nice trucks, this is the event to attend and many of the truck drivers will let you in their trucks for an inside viewing.

    My dad has been an OTR trucker for close to 40 years now (since long before I was born) and some of my FAVORITE childhood memories are the times I got to go in the truck with him. He is my inspiration to want to travel and see as much of the world as I can.

    oh my god this makes me so happy and nostalgic :( my dad used to be a truck driver and he had the whole bunk bed and fridge set up, and i’d travel with him sometimes on my school breaks and stuff. it was always so incredible, especially when i could just sleep in bed all day, but riding around in those tall ass seats was always so much fun. this really made me miss that and i hadn’t thought about that part of my life in so long. love this video!!

    As an OTR driver, I stop at Iowa 80 all the time. This place is absolutely awesome, it's a truckers paradise. The restaurant has some of the best food on the interstate. It's truly an amazing place for truckers and pretty much anyone who's even interested in trucks. I love what I do for a living, greatest job in the world. 7 years and I've gotten to see 48 states. You guys should go to the other Iowa 80 properties. They are as follows: I44 Petro in Joplin Missouri, I70 Petro in Oak Grove Missouri (right outside Kansas City) and I95 Petro in Kenley North Carolina. All are really great truck stops and all have something unique to see. Awesome video.

      Hey my dad is about to take me there tomorrow! One of our stories is that one day we were up at I-80 and we were doing a reset day and we headed over to the trucking museum, on our way out the sky looked almost black at 4 in the afternoon but it wasn’t raining yet so we started to head back to our truck to eat dinner while walking down the sidewalk my dad looked at me and just stopped walking and slowly backed away and told me to run to the truck. I was really confused and kinda freaked out but I did as I was told and we ran back, once we got inside I asked what was wrong and he just looked at me so relieved and said “all of your hair was standing up”. Anyways that’s how I almost got struck by lightning and that’s just one of the cool things that’s happened over the road. I have my own bed in our truck and spend most of my summer on the road and I have and will for years. In fact the sleeper truck they went into was the exact same one my dad has.

It is never easy having a parent who is gone so much, but knowing how hard of a worker truck drivers are, it makes it worth it. It is so nice to see how enthusiastic you both are about this video and it is so close to my heart! Thank you for spreading the knowledge about truck drivers that others do not know! Stay safe in your travels!

    I'm a OTR truck driver and I have stayed at this amazing truckstop twice, and always on my 34 hour reset. The amenities and food are awesome, but both times I got a parking spot waaaaaaaaaay out in the wilderness from the main building and it's quite a long walk, which is great for exercise. I wish there were more of these large truckstops across the country, especially along the major trucking traffic routes because parking a big rig can be difficult at times.

      To be fair they are a little higher on the diesel but thats because their set up to take trucks.
