“We are proud to showcase the nation’s top facilities for truck drivers,” said Chris Oliver, CMO at Trucker Path. “This year, we are also naming the truck stops that have been selected by the Trucker Path community as one of the nation’s Top 100 annually for each of the past five years. That significant achievement, and the recognition for all winners, means their customers can count on these truck stops to help make truckers’ lives on the road easier.”
