It is big and it does have alot of trucks...google earth shows it is between US 90 on the north, taft rd on the south with an entrance drive between 700 and 750 Elmhurst rd.

I am a novice with google earth and not a pay member, but from what I could see, there aren't any buildings other then maybe a office trailer at the end of the drive before a right turn into the large lot...

Put the elmhurst rd des plaines il in google earth and move to elmhurst and US 90 and you will see it...no idea what it is....yet

I think its a parking lot for truck, located on the southeast corner of Elmhurst Rd. & I-90

I drove by it yesterday, twice for a pickup.

Don't tell me lugnut you were the follow up truck at that pickup? If you were, nice truck.

BUT it is a private parking lot for trucks, I was told it is a pay by month thing and if you noticed there was a bit of activity going on there - some sort of cook out. I asked about it later on when I was in Gary, ran into the driver who was picking up before me when I did my load check.

Thanks for the info on the private truck parking.
I do not know if we were the lugnut you saw. We did drop in Churubusco IN, then a second drop in Lockport, IL. Empty at that point then DH to pick up item 1 in Addison, IL then to pick up item 2 in Bensenville, IL then onto dropping item 1 in St Johns, MI Sunday night. Then on to Detroit, MI for early am drop of item 2. Empty then, DH back to Rochester, MI for item pick up and direct to Cleveland, OH for item drop.
Then, boom goes the dynamite!
