Living at The World’s Largest Truck Stop for a WHOLE DAY 🚚🍽️ + Iowa 80 Truck Museum Tour 🚚🍽️

[@RL-Blo]

Incredible!! A trucker’s oasis! Thanks for the shout out! This place is totally on my bucket list whenever I’m able to drive cross-country! Not sure about the buffet though. The quality looks questionable. But the fact that they have a movie theatre where you can choose the movie is freakin awesome! Would love to try Einstein Bros. Bagels 🥯 only wish the closest one wasn’t 3 and a half hours from me in Ohio. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family, Ken!🎄🍾🎉🎊

As a truck driver I’d like to thank you, Ken, for doing these truck stop tours. These places are kinda home away from home away from home for the professional drivers of America and Canada. Places like the Iowa 80 are a kinda treat to get to stay at, especially for a weekend. Unfortunately some of the more common places to park, like Pilot or Flying J, offer far less.

[@mike1975a]

Absolutely agree. I had to do a 36 hour reset here once, it was so nice to have actual facilities. Plus the store was mind-blowing (I remember the DVD selection was impressive, back when we still bought DVDs).

I've gotten fuel and parked at the Pilot across the street and always walk to Iowa 80.

[@cornmangamer5225]

I can attest. I work at Pilot and we don’t really have much when it comes to food. We have a deli (with a small selection of food) and a subway. That’s it. This truck stop is definitely a million times better than mine

It looks like they've finally added some fresh fruits. The last time I was there was a couple of years ago. I would never see fresh fruit which is obviously missing especially during the summer. All they had were canned peaches when I stopped there. The buffet improved quite a bit after they did their remodel to the buffet. I remember one time when I stopped there the fried chicken was room temperature, so was the fish. I didn't come back until they had did their remodel and tried them out again. The only thing lacking was fresh fruit.

[@nerdknight111]

Every year in December, I come back to watch this video. It just feels like a new Christmas tradition because of the truck stop being all decorated for the holidays. When I travel a few hours north to visit my girlfriend every few months, I usually stop at a Pilot/Flying J truck stop and they have some of the amenities this place has like showers, truck scales, parking spots for overnight sleeping, a fast food place (Subway to be specific), a bunch of different drink stations like fountain drinks and coffee, and a bunch of snacks and other odds and ends things you'd find. I usually buy a soda when I go there and I prefer to use cash because one time I got gas when I was there and my credit card got skimmed. One time I was there and I saw a bumper sticker that made me think of my brother. My girlfriend's town has a truck stop in the closest town about 5 miles away that's a Loves. Pretty much the same except the restaurant is Arby's, although last time we ate there the food was, in your rating scale, a Would Not Recommend because the fries tasted bland and they ignored how we wanted our sandwiches made.

[@kaitlynheitz7150]

I’m originally from New Jersey, so when I lived in Jersey when we would come to Iowa to visit my grandparents my parents and my brother would stop at that truck stop to take a break from driving and to eat and bathroom breaks. I live in Iowa now have for about 9 years almost, so I still go to the Iowa 80 Truck a Stop on the way to go to jersey for summer vacation and then sometimes we stop again on the way back to Iowa! 😊❤️

[@patrickcooper9641]

I have stopped there a few times and it was always busy so they had a very quick turn around with the food and the result was okay, typical truck stop foods. This time it looked like it had been standing there a few hours and everything was either dried out over cooked. It is still food and when you are tired from driving many miles a warm meal will do you good. Great channel! Cheers
