Because Petro's are the absolute best Trucker Stops and real estate in southern California is among the highest anywhere in the world that's why, I hope this helps you not be so angry. Keep on Trucking !
There are lots of "free" parking spots. They're "free" if you buy fuel (not sure of the minimum) or spend $20 in the store or restaurant. Also, if you're only there for 2 hours or less there's no charge.
Buy a petro in LA and ask again
First 2 hrs.is free.when you you go out you have to show the ticket you get when you go in.
You dont pay for parking, if you spend 20 dollars or more.
