    Thank you thank you thank you Mr. Love for your truck stops. Your awesome man. Your the only trucking chain out there trying to help us truck drivers with truck parking. Truck parking is a terrible terrible terrible problem on the road and we greatly appreciate your efforts to help us with more truck parking. If there's anything I would recommend as trucker, could you please add a few more fuel pumps to your new stores. Maybe 12 - 15 pumps per truck stop. The problem is truckers take way too long to get fuel and we need more pumps at the fuel island so truckers in a hurry can get fuel and leave. It's a major problem with slow truckers taking too long to get fuel. Beyond that more truck parking and additions are always needed. There's a long long way to go in solving the parking problems but your certainly trying to help us out. Thank you so so so so much. Please keep up the good work. Your company is really awesome and such a badly needed breath of fresh air to know we have a friend trying to help us with truck parking. Thank you so much.

    I say Bravo 👏 for the organization talent in year over year expansion of some 50 stores. Still a little scarce in NY and Jersey but I'm sure they're MFers to do business with. I'd be honored to buy your stock if you ever decide to go public. Thank you for the coffee and free lunch these past years.

    I used to stop at that truck stop in Van Texas he's talking about it's right now there's a barbecue place right next to it I think I would fuel up there twice a week on my route from Alabama to Arizona. I always go to the little one because the bigger one up on the hill the pumps are real far away from the store so it's time consuming going in there to get your receipt and come back. I really appreciate Love's truck stops I just started going back to him it just kind of depends on my route but the stores are always clean and the people are very courteous. I'm broke down here for the rest of the week and bevier Missouri and this one's kind of new but it's small I mean they could really do the same thing like they did in Van and because there's non-stop business here

    More truck parking 90+ spots. Longer parking spaces 75+ feet. A few more fuel islands, more than just 5. The upgrades and new shower rooms are awesome, but put more than 3 or 4 to limit wait time please. Also the updated and new restrooms are great as well, but once again, please put more than just 2 or 3 stalls, there is a heavy amount of traffic that comes your stores, and please...please look into inforceing the "Pull forward after fueling" at your truck stops, I don't know what it is about some people, but they think they can just hang out in the fuel line and not fuel, and I'm not talking 10 or 15 minutes I'm talking 30-45 minutes. It doesn't take that long to fuel your truck and then pull forward or park in a parking space to handle your business inside the store. Are idle air units ever coming back? The creme brulee coffee is amazing, keep it.

    I hope they have at least one truck driver on there board. Also, I think they should hire porters for restroom and shower cleaning, instead of having the cashier/tire technician do this job. When you have someone stop what there doing because they have drivers waiting for a shower to be clean just doesn't make sense.

      @LovesTravelStops On 12/28/15 at your Lodi location your employee Will in the shop screamed and yelled at me ''Don't you know you were driving down the road shooting sparks?'' The Love's in Lodi was built to scream and yell at me! Months ago I talked to Sal on the phone about it. Sal apologized for Will's hostile, inconsiderate behavior. Here's what went down. Love's in Lodi on 12/28/15 repaired the airlines on Heartland Express trailer, trailer #23633, did they not? I picked up the load at the General Mills facility 4718 New Castle Rd Stockton CA on 12/28/15. The load delivered to the Winco facility 2101 Andresen Rd Vancouver WA on 12/30/15. Shortly after I picked up the load in Stockton CA I was heading north bound on the I-5 AND THEN SUDDENLY a guy wearing a turban in a semi truck in the lane to my left kept motioning me that there is something wrong with your trailer. I exited exit #485 on the I-5. I pulled off to the side of the road there on HWY 12. I noticed as soon as I got out of the truck my airlines were hissing. That means that you are losing air somewhere. Since I was just barely off the road I didn't feel safe being there so I went directly to the 3B's truck stop, pulled into a fuel bay to get a better look. I then called up my trucking company's breakdown #, I was directed to the Love's. When I was at the Love's is when I found out that my airlines had come loose. Somehow Love's caused my airlines to come apart between picking up my load there in Stockton and exit #485. The Love's WAS ALREADY BUILT with a shop for me to be in to be SCREAMED AND YELLED at by Will for driving down the road shooting sparks and not knowing it! HOW Love's was I supposed to know that my airlines came loose when I was driving down the road though? The sparks shooting from underneath my trailer was from the metal clasping of the airline system dragging as I was going down the Interstate. Love's built the truck stop, caused my airlines to come apart, then SCREAMED AND YELLED at me for driving down the road shooting sparks!

      You should know how to install your own mudflaps and signal lights. I'm a company driver and have done both numerous times. Saves time and money. Do light maintenance and repairs to your own truck to keep rolling.
