I-95 OverNight

[bp926]

Is it a good idea to overnight in a truck stop on I-95 in Ct. ? Any Pros or Cons?

I use flying j truck stops when I can. I have used other truck stops too but always check with management. Downside is the trucks making noise. Not as bad as it used to be since the law now forbids excessive idling of diesels. I have found a couple times that some truck drivers get annoyed at the presence of an rv. They think the spots are for them only. That's why I get permission from management. I don't recommend rest stops unless they are legal and have security.

Ditto for Flying J, have used them a few times... Most now have separate parking for the RV people...

hi there there is one big truckstop on I95 in CT. it is at exit fourty. Some how this stae is not fond of trucks and rvs. the gas station where i work has 2 acres and is safe we are about 5 miles off of exit 24. North on rt58 if you want you could stop for the night here. just send me a pm and I will help you out.:cool:

been there done that. it is fine if you are justing looking for quick place to stay while travelling. think we stayed at flying j or pilot travel center? they had seperate rv parking and even had a sewer dump. also i bet there are a couple campgrounds close by that interstate. there is an i95 app you can get for iphones(99cents). helped us find things. lists campgrounds close to each exit.

Many Thanks for all the responses and the overnight offer. I'm not sure what we will do. Mystic Ct has a nice KOA CG nearby and fuel before you get back on I-95. I have to check if they have any spots that can hold the TT and TV hooked up about 50'.

Thanks again
