go to the IPDB.org and read some reviews, and await some guys to chime in here, but 2000 seems retarded...
no matter what condition it is in...
Priced way, way too high ... Pretty fun game for that era, but better be absolutely pristine for that price.
Truck stop layout does look a bit boring. With that said, I have NEVER seen this pin on location or a pinball show so the higher price might be due to the fact that it seems to be pretty rare.
IPDB won't list how many were made, but it was the pin produced right as bally/williams merged
"This was the first game following the merger of Williams and Bally/Midway; if you examine the right side of the playfield above the ball launch, you will find a yellow traffic merge sign with the text "Williams/Bally Merge"

Interesting it was almost called ramp warrior:

It's more fun to play than it looks, but I wouldn't have it in a very small collection unless the theme appeals to you.

This pin seems to have eluded me as well.
Quoted from katoskave:Classic but too high priced. $1200 max is my guess.
100% agree. No more than $1200 unless its near perfect. Had a chance to buy this game in nice condition aout 6 months ago for $1100.
I had one of these with a touched up and cleared playfield. I think I got $1200 for it and most people thought that was a lot. I found the game almost unplayable. Maybe I needed to dial it in more, the 1" balls helped. Seems like it could have some sweet ramp combos like Fish Tales but I couldn't get it going.

Nice catch.
Never saw this game before. But man did they have some liberties with those two women by the flippers. Whoa Nellie's inspiration.

Sold mine for $800 I think. No way it's worth $2000. Fun game, and one of only a couple pins that called for a 1" ball, not a standard 1-1/16" ball.
Guaranteed the seller has standard balls in it...Doesn't know the machine...Doesn't know where to price it either.
