Is a Buc-ee's coming to your neck of the woods?

Do you think they would open one in NY or CA? Hell no. The cost of doing business and crime at these places is not a viable option.

When to one in Tennessee last year in October. Place was packed! Super clean even in the restrooms.

Yes we have them in Florida. Buc-ee’s is awesome. It’s like a giant Cracker Barrel gas station on steroids with the best public restrooms you’ve ever seen.

Check out the salaries…

One is set to open about 6 miles north of me on I95 here on the Treasures coast. We are looking forward to it.

$225,000 a year sounds like some big Buc-ee's to me!

Stopped at the Pigeon Forge Buc ee’s today. I swear there was enough people in there-every filling area filled- place had to be clearing $100K an hour.

I saw this on the New Jersey turnpike recently. Not my pic, it's from this: https://www.nj.com/business/2024/02/...t-we-know.html

It’s also a very nice living in most of the rest of the country, especially if you’re significant other has a decent job. I couldn’t give two shits about Californias problems….

Im surprised there was no mention of the one coming to Mississippi. Not too far from me. They started building it and even creating a new exit on I-10 just for Buc-ee's.

"A new overpass is under construction at Menge Avenue and Interstate 10 in Pass Christian, Miss., Friday, Feb. 23, 2024, to accommodate a Buc-ee's location that will be built there. It will be the first Buc-ee's in Mississippi...."

Pretty hard to go wrong when your mascot is a beaver.
