Reasons We Like This Game:  Originally intended to be called "Road Warrior" Truck Stop was designed by the very best who's who of pinball in the 1980's!  Steve Kirk worked on Meteor and other Stern pinball games, Jim Patla worked on Eight Ball Deluxe, Centaur and many other hits for Bally.  Pat McMahon did the artwork on Tales of the Arabian Nights, and is one of the best pinball machine artists ever!  If you couldn't tell by looking at the pictures, Truck Stop is LOADED with features!  Inside you'll find the following:  Six drop targets, FOUR slingshots, three mushroom bumpers, a two ball multi ball, eight stationary targets, no jet bumpers (intentional, and very unusual), two out holes, FOUR ramps and FOUR flippers!

Truck Stop is a great pinball machine if you love ramp shots, in particular long sweeping ones! There’s a constant flow of shots on the left and right sides, they are all super smooth and totally fun!

     

Special Features:  Truck Stop is one of the first pinball machines ever made with four ramps!  The combination of four ramps and the four flippers makes it incredibly challenging, super fun, super fast, and tough to master!  If that wasn’t enough, you have two sets of staggered drop targets.  The drop targets are three deep, so you need to hit the first one down to get to the 2nd, 3rd etc.

     

Another unique feature about this pinball machine is the big rig backbox!  If you look at the top there's trucker lights on it! Just like the real thing from the same manufacturer!  Another cool feature is that this game does not have any jet bumpers...  Instead you have the mushroom bumpers which are 1/3 the size of a pop bumper and much harder to hit!  Another interesting feature is that Truck Stop has FOUR slingshots to make the balls fly all over the place!  (two at the top and two at the bottom)  Nearly all other pinball machines are only built with two.  And if that wasn't enough the game has FOUR flippers to boot!  Overall this game pretty challenging with enough action to keep you coming back for years to come!
