Long Haul Trucking is a hard enough job, being able to find a truck stop when you need one shouldnt be. Hopefully this will help those road rangers stay fueled, fed and at the top of their game.
3.3 Adds Real Time (as published by their company, so it is possible price could be different when you pull up, but its the price their information says at the time of the request) Gas Prices to some locations. (TA/Petro, PILOT/FlyingJ, LOVES and AMBEST currently)
3.0 Adds finally the most requested feature, a Route/Trip Planner. Now see only things along your selected route, to help you better plan.
This is so much more than just a truck stop locator app it is 5 Apps in One! Truck Stops, Rest Areas, Potential Overnight Parking Locations, CAT Scales and Weigh Stations.

NO ADS! NO IN APP PURCHASES!
Sams Clubs and Wal Marts have been filtered to only show those that are known to allow overnight parking, but just in case, a single button click allows you to call to make sure. There is no filter for Home Depot, Lowes and Costos because I have not been able to find any information, but I have added them so that in a pinch it allows another potential option.. they too have one click phone call ability to validate that the store will not have a problem with you being there overnight.

Latest reviews of Truck Stops Pro app for iPhone and iPad
All weight stations disappeared after last update!!! Fix it, please .
Love the app as far as the icons showing what it where. Not very accurate with the distances though. I dont feel this was always the case. Its like somewhere along the lines it got switched to air miles or something. I have an example, I am at exit 200 off I10 in AZ, to exit 139 app says it is 52 miles away but basic math it is actually 61 miles away. If you increase the distance then the miles away increases.
Not been updated in awhile to add more truck stops. Its a paid app and Im no longer going to be using it.
Finally a practical app to find truck stops or just a place to park. Parking is a BIG issue daily. Hope we see regular updates too. Ill definitely recommend this app to other drivers. Thank you
I live this app. Im a merchandiser and I use this to find Pilot Truck Stops. Pilot is the only place I can find my favorite snacks. Cajun Snack Mix
