About a month ago, I was passing thru Walcott, IA and thought you guys might enjoy seeing The world famous Iowa 80 Truck Stop. This is one of those places where Truckers can get their "bling" on. Wouldn't it be nice to have a store like this full of Charger parts!  ;)

Enjoy the pics........ :icon_smile_big:

They have a few trucks on display on the showroom floor. The yellow Peterbuilt is on a turntable in the front window!  :2thumbs:

I stop by there all the time going back and fourth to see my sister in Iowa City.  Interesting place to say the least.

Pretty cool place, I like some of those steering wheels. Too bad they're so huge! ;D

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)
