“So full of great food. Chicken, burritos. Sleep. Sleep. Feel like El Rey! Staff is great, like always. Tractor parking is skilled. Take your time going in. BUMPS! Worth it once you're in. I've noticed lot's of trucks turning around and getting back on the highway once they see the dirt lot. Lol”

“Just got a new tow vehicle and wanted to make sure the whole family, dogs, cargo didn't go over. This was the closest CAT scale. It as actually our first time at a CAT scale so wasn't familiar with the process. I downloaded the apps and attached payment to the app so it was very easy to just drive right up and onto the scales. Not much for instruction so watch a few youtube videos before you go to figure out where to put your axles. Because I had the app, I didn't use the call button. I wasn't sure where I'd go inside if I didn't, probably the AM/PM. Only complaint about the location was the HUGE pot holes that could cause some pretty severe damage to my vehicle and 16' trailer. So pay attention as you make your way to the scales. There's plenty of truck/ RV parking and I did run into AM/PM to use the restroom and grab snacks. Five stars for cleanliness! The store and restrooms were immaculate and the gentleman working was very kind. It's an easy exit off the freeway and will likely swing through for another weigh in with more cargo on our next trip to S. Cal”

“Chevron always a great place to go get gas for your car. It just last longer they are always open as well. The price was cheap compared to Los Angeles. Filled up my gas tank all the way. 24/7 they are open. They just close the location to come inside when it’s a later time.
