Default We got a BUC-EE's bitches!

I know you Texas people know what I'm talking about. That place is ridiculous.

After hearing the hype I was looking forward to stopping at one on my trip to Texas last January.

Entered Texas on I-20, destination was Corsicana, not a single one on the route.

WTF? We stayed on I-20 all the way past Tyler.

Honestly, it makes one wonder who comes up with the marketing behind places like this. It is literally a mix of Tractor Supply, Academy Sports, a butcher shop, and everything in between. And for a big ass gas station, their brisket sammich ain't bad.

We used to buy ice and drinks at the original Buc-ees in Freeport when going fishing. That was before the beaver nuggets, the borillion gas pumps, and other excesses.

I hope you stopped at Collin St. Bakery in Corsicana for a fruitcake or two. Mmmmm.

We have a Busy Bee in Live Oak that is worth a stop. I don't think it is anything like a Buc kees.

We are getting one in NW GA. Carpet Capital of the world with gigantic distribution centers. The .gov promised to build on/off ramps from I-75, if they built their dist. centers here. .gov actually got around to building them about 15 yrs. later LOL. A truck stop on every exit here. They just completed a giant Love's truck stop and the Buccee's will be on that same exit. Never been inside one, only heard a few things about them.

Probably some $$$ to be made, if you could figure out and start a .biz nearby for the truckers.

There's a Buc-ee's about 10 minutes from my house. 100 gas pumps. It's not a truck stop - no 18 wheelers allowed.

There’s one near Greenville TX. I think it takes a minute to pass the damn thing at 70MPH. Huge is an understatement.

Stopped at the one in Temple on Sunday while on the way to pick up my new lift. It was packed, women's restroom line was 1/2 way to the door. Gas was the cheapest on the interstate though, $1.53.
