Ground has been broken for a 17,000-square-foot addition to the trucker store that will bring total square footage of Iowa 80's main building to more than 67,000, ensuring that the title of World's Largest Truckstop will remain in Walcott, Iowa.
The new addition, called The SuperTrucks Center, will boast a glass elevator to take drivers to the second floor amenities. Several full-size tractors and tractor trailers will display new interior and exterior chrome and stainless products as well as lights so drivers can see how the merchandise looks installed on a truck.
The SuperTrucks Center will include a staff of truck accessories experts to assist drivers with customizing their trucks. A wall of lights will be show drivers what every single type of light sold will look like lit. The vinyl graphics shop, custom t-shirt shop and embroidery center will move into the new addition so drivers can see designs come to life. There will also be a balcony from the second floor overlooking the SuperTrucks Center where drivers can just stand and soak in all the chrome and lights.
The most unique feature will be a semi-tractor on a rotating floor that will be seen through giant glass windows on the northeast corner of the building.
