5.0 out of 5 stars Useful for anyone who travels, January 7, 2005

By	Lee G. Gilman (Charlotte, NC, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Next Exit (Next Exit: The Most Complete Interstate Highway Guide Ever Printed) (Paperback)

This handy guide lists services at exits off of most major interstates (all 2-digit interstates and selected 3-digit ones as well). If you have your favorite gasoline brand or only want to eat at specific restaurants, you can search the listings for your preferred brand on the stretch of highway you're currently on. Hospitals, parks, shopping centers, and other attractions are also identified. Although the now-defunct "Professional Truckers Exit Guide" had a better layout (individual categories of services, i.e; gas, lodging, etc. were listed on separate lines and every other page had a strip map of the highway covered) I have not seen it in stores since 2000, so I do believe the Next Exit is the only such directory currently in print. This is a valuable tool that no interstate traveler should be without.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Next EXIT 2006 (Next Exit: The Most Complete Interstate Highway Guide Ever Printed), March 16, 2006

By	A. Reader - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Next EXIT 2006 (Next Exit: The Most Complete Interstate Highway Guide Ever Printed) (Paperback)

This is an essential, fantastic guide to highway exits. We travel all over the country in our RV, and I don't know what we'd do without this book. We can plan our stops, know where to find healthy food (and the best coffee!), locate supermarkets, hardware stores, the local Barnes and Noble, gas stations. We know when NOT to leave the highway in a futile search for a gas station or a snack. We use it to easily calculate mileage. If we travel without our RV, we can plan our stops where there are good hotels. An absolute must for automobile trips in the U.S.!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Bring back the "Exit Authority", September 29, 2002

By	G. Lewis (Hudson, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Next Exit: USA Interstate Highway Exit Directory (Next Exit: The Most Complete Interstate Highway Guide Ever Printed) (Paperback)

Compared to "The Exit Authority" (More expensive, but worth the price) this book is garbage.

The paper is newsprint, so it tears easily, and doesn't hold up well in the cab of my semi. The layout is on a state-by-state basis, not continuously by freeway, so you have to change pages when you change states, not when you change freeways. For interstate driving, this is very annoying.

As a professional truck driver, I do not buy this book, and I do not recommend it to anyone else.
