The guide
Where exactly
Head East out I 565, at 565 end HWY 72 starts. After passing Chase RD, Arby's, McDonald's, and Taco Bell, the Citgo is next on the right side of the road, and an open parking for 18 wheeler parking. Cross street: Just past Chase Rd on HWY 72
When to go
Have heard on the CB truckers tryin to hook up all different times of the day over the years, but better action can be found from 8:00 PM till the early morning hours. Best times: Best time is 9:00 PM till about 2:00 AM.
Etiquette
If you see someone showing some interest, get out of your car, check your tires or in the trunk, ALWAYS show a trucker your face, truckers tend to overlook the guys who dont show what they have to offer, which is yourself. If he is , he will do more things to get your attention.
Safety
Not alot of action going on all the time, its kinda hit and miss as with any trucking rest areas, but when you do find a trucker, 9 outa 10 times it will be worth it. Just remember that not every trucker is looking, and just because they have the inside light is on, doesn't mean they're looking. All truckers have to keep a log, and they all have to write down there time, miles, and other info. Just follow your gut, if he has half his clothes on, and has the light on knowing you can see him, odds are he needs his load off, and not the one in his trailor.

I'd like to check this place out one evening this week (between 6 and 9 pm) if anyone is interested.

'Been there a few times and didn't have a bit of luck. Guess I have to hope for a trucker to email me or something.
