Any tips for a Laredo rookie? (Can't believe I'm opening myself up for this)

I always go to HEB when I'm down there. Very well priced, super fresh produce. Sometimes it's the simple things that keep me going.

As far as gettin' outta there, it's prudent to factor in some extra $ on your inbound load to DH out. I normally stay 1 day, then bug out. If I wanna lay in the sun I'll do that on the deck at home :)

Safe travels ....

I also like HEB. Last 2 times I was down there i went to HEB to stock up and then slept there. Quiet and nobody bothered me. Better LTE signal than at the J.

Got the oil changed, fixed a small oil leak before it grew, still waiting in the phone to start ringing.

Romulus, MI 15:00 to Laredo, TX 09:00 Monday. Finally get to see what Laredo sitting is all about :)
Make sure your truck is fully stocked with food and water. Monday and Tuesday are usually slower days to get out. Things start to move on Wed. to the weekend. It may take a while. Be patient.

I'm pretty sure there are signs posted saying no overnight vehicles. Ya might want to give a good look around.
That would sure make for a memorable first visit :)

Great tips on Laredo. Much appreciated. I haven't heard of HEB but will give it a shot. Thanks again folks!

They are similar to Meijer or Walmart. HEB has been around Texas for many years. Based out of San Antonio and is located throughout Texas. It mainly services to the Hispanic culture but has food for all walks of life.
