I'm at this Pilot in West Des Moines, IA and there is a Schneider drop yard right behind it. That's convenient!

NP. Had to make an emergency pit stop here. While the yard is a great place to drop Schneider trailers, I had to drop something a little less...orange...at the pilot.

I saw Rob T. Was nearby. Sorry i couldn't stick around to say hi because we must continue onto Reno. While I try to sleep in this moving truck. It's no easier the second time around, I'll tell yuhs that!

Been to that Pilot several times. The fuel island has some crazy angles.

I saw a red CFI truck today for the first time. Any significance to that?

No I do not, however you may have luck checking out the truck stops and seeing if you'd be able to park there. Flying J in Altoona. In the opposite direction on I80/35 you have Pilot in Urbandale or the next exit has a loves.

Most all newer series are going back to the red paint scheme for CFI. Prior to say 2016, these are a mix of red and white.
