''I hitched from southern Toledo where I-75 hits I-80/90. There are four large truck stops right next to each other, each with different types of truckers and car drivers. The people were receptive to hitchhikers and told me that people pass through that truck stop looking for a ride about once a week. I had a sign and asked the guys as they entered the stores. One offered me a ride 5 hours in the direction I was going within the first fifteen minutes (but I had to wait two hours till he left). A woman at the store said she'd seen people have to sleep overnight because they didn't "look as friendly as you" and couldn't get a ride.''

The people who have picked me up here are some of the coolest folks I was 've met.
