They have 2 armed security guards.. I'm talking security guards packing heat. (Guns)

This was the Pilot off exit 276 on the I70 in Denver.. glad I just got fuel there. Definitely one of those truck stops where when you park you lock your doors tie a strap from door handle to door handle and don't get out for anything. Hahahaha

HOS:

Hours Of Service

HOS refers to the logbook hours of service regulations.

Been a while since I have been in Denver. However, when I was on Denver, I usually fueled at the terminal.

Terminal:

A facility where trucking companies operate out of, or their "home base" if you will. A lot of major companies have multiple terminals around the country which usually consist of the main office building, a drop lot for trailers, and sometimes a repair shop and wash facilities.

When you see the fuel pumps are all torn out, craters for pot holes in the dirt lot, and signs on the door that say "restrooms are for customers only."

Oh yes, and you have to pay to park there. rofl-3.gif

Hey Wilson, how have you been? Haven't seen you post in a while and was wondering about you!

Oh I've been running hard lately. I had my 17yr old nephew from France come to visit this summer. I took him out in the truck with me for about 3 weeks. He loved it! Now I am running hard again. Oh yeah, I recently went over my 1 year solo anniversary. Now I am an experienced rookie! smile.gif
