Fueling

[davidkerryedwards]

Used the Flying J just south of Cheyenne on I-25 a couple of weeks
ago. RV lanes are as poorly designed as anything I have ever seen.
Allows one RV to wait behind the refueling one and then it backs up
into the road blocking all the trucks that need to go by to get to the
truck fueling. When I was there on Labor Day weekend the result was a
back up down the road, around the corner and down the next road, onto
the off ramp of I-25 and out in the right hand lane of I-25. VERY
dangerous.
Exit from the RV pumps required driving thru the car fueling station
if you were lucky enough not to have anyone parked in the parking
spaces which blocked exit from the pump if you had a toad. Dump
station required exiting the station, and getting back into line to
enter the station via the car entrance.
