As a son of a truck driver I love the community. Everyone for the most part are very friendly, and love the road. Even now when I visit truck stops on my travels with friends they still remember from when I was a kid, and occasionally tell me my dad was just in the area. They take care of their own. My dad always tries to help if its something he can do if he sees someone having trouble. Even if its just help with a meal. The truck stop in Iowa is great I love it.

I have recently discovered your channel, Ken. I'm a trucker from Tennessee and used to run between the GTA and Detroit frequently. Been to the Flying J many times. Great place to stop, good parking, showers (free with 50 US gallons or 200 liters, or around $15 if no fuel) and...food! I too heartily recommend the Canadian Benedict! Canadians have a reputation for being friendly and most I have met uphold that well. I miss going to Canada sometimes but my current operation keeps me closer to home, so that's nice. I do need to pop into Timmie's for a Double-Double and a crueller though. Our US brands just aren't the same. Cheers!

I can't wait to see you checking out Iowa. I grew up there before moving to Buffalo, NY a few years ago. You'll be near Davenport - if you get a chance check out The Iowa Machine Shed restaurant for a good mid-western meal. It's a really good farmer - farm to table restaurant. If you plan to head to the capital Des Moines, you have to check out Zombie Burger. Their original location in downtown is all zombie themed. They have a mall location in Coralville which is about 45 minutes away from the truck stop you mentioned. It's the same food, you just don't get the full theme experience. They have unique burgers and definitely get a basket of fries with Zombie Sauce. If you want to continue the gas station theme Casey's General Store is a BIG deal in Iowa known for their pizza takeout. You can find a Casey's in almost every small or big town in Iowa. Also in Des Moines if you want something really interesting, check out Fong's Pizza - crab rangoon pizza, kung pao chicken pizza and General Tso's chicken pizza. They were featured on The Travel Channel's Pizza Paradise a few years ago. Have fun.

That's just near to me. I live in Kitchener Ont and I used to love going to Tu Lane truck stop just near Cambridge Ont. They had the 24 hour breakfast that I loved and the roast beef dinner. They had the regular portion and the truckers portion. It was huge. They closed down about 15-20 years ago. There's nothing like Canadian bacon(back bacon). They were last of the small mom and pop truck stops. There is just big corporate stops now. Glad you liked our Canuck hospitality. Like everywhere you'll have good and bad services from people. Glad you had a good experience.
