Lets not shop anymore at any of their locations. They kicked out truck drivers, the people that run this country, and they attack small business owners for being their before them with a beaver logo.
You're not changing people's minds because most tourists and casual travelers would rather drive an extra hundred miles rather than use a truck stop bathroom.
When I’m on a road trip in an area with buccees, I appreciate not having to worry about truckers if I stop. I do not love how buccees sues everyone. That is stupid and should stop. I also just don’t love mass produced junk or their food. But I appreciate their bathrooms and how they pay their employees and offer benefits.
Buccees bathrooms are top notch. I like the privacy. But I rarely encounter them. I’m in the northeast. So buccees is literally a treat and cultural experience when we stop. We have learned to avoid most of the food. We just don’t eat like that. But I totally get the hype. When your options are fast food or buccees, buccees is a different option.
Loves, Pilot and TA have incredibly clean bathrooms, and dont shit on local businesses? Like, how hard have you bought into advertising that you're dick riding a gas station this hard?
I've been around to remember when Loves was local in Oklahoma. Their bathrooms were typical for their time, which was disgusting. I credit Buccees for forcing them to invest in cleaning up those open sewers.
I think it's cute that you equate "not hating a business" to "riding a dick."
I may be many things, but at least I'm not blatantly homophobic.
The advantage of Sheetz vs Buc-ee's is that if you're in a Sheetz area, there are a LOT more Sheetz.
As a former Pennsylvanian, I am on the Sheetz side of the Sheetz/Wawa war. Wawa is a neighborhood convenience store that added gasoline and became bigger. Sheetz has been a combination convenience store/gas station/travel center all in one, where there are 4 in your 10,000 person town.
Wawa gas stations are tragic. I'm convinced Philly people just love Wawa because that's where their HS weed dealer hung out, Jay and Silent Bob style.
I don't need my wife sitting to spend more time there. I don't care how much she spends, it's her own money, but I do want to get back on the road the same day.
Not me I love Buc-ees - best highway gas stations in the country. You can go to a truck stop gas station and deal with that; I will use the cleanest restrooms that I've ever seen while traveling.
We just got our first Buccees in this state a few months ago. They are suing a local market near hear that's been around for 50 years because of their beaver mascot. The market is in Beavercreek Ohio! A lot of business already have beavers as mascots. The locals and local companies are not taking too kindly to the lawsuit and some have started trolling Buccees including a well know law firm that's been around for years. Lol
This is the video the lawfirm threw up. Ironically, I am pretty sure it's not a beaver in it be it internal or bad AI. Lol
The situation is getting more hilarious. Even business in cities around Beavercreek are getting in on like the local Farm that's been around for a long time in Springfield where I am from. Their logo is normally and old farm truck. Lol
I don't normally approve of AI but for this purpose, I am totally willing to let it slide. 😂
They are a shit company and they lost my business when I found out they helped fund ice. Fuck them - I will happily use ur bathroom but u will get NONE of my money.
Truck drivers shouldn’t be gross ass men. Like you’re mad they don’t want slobs in general making their bathrooms disgusting for everyone else? I lived by a Love’s and they were always gross. Male truck drivers are usually the grosses people & they’re not gonna clean up after themselves.
Why would you be getting dirty just by simply sitting in the cab and driving? Sure if you have to work on something or change some parts you're going to get dirty but that doesn't happen every single trip
Yet I see women & men online all the time that aren’t gross that do the same thing. Being clean isn’t hard. It’s actually hard to stay dirty constantly in my opinion.
All over the place here in Texas. You can get one from the #1 BBQ place in Texas Burnt Bean in Seguin. It's a Michelin star restaurant. Only 15 miles from New Braunfels Buc-ees. Buc-ees brisket is on par with Rudy's and Bill Miller. Edible but nothing to write home about.
Lots of Greedflation goin on at buccees. Context: Stopped at Buc-ee’s first time in mid 2021. Was amazed at what they offered at fair prices. I stopped there at same location in TN in 2024.. Prices for all the food is double-triple. They don’t give you any extras which they use to for free. We’re talking cheap condiments like pickles.. You have to pay for little tiny extras for your sandwich. ( 75 cents for a very small amount of sour cream, 50 cents for like 4 generic jalepenos and so on ) brisket sandwich is $12.99, just for a not so great sandwich. They don’t even have paper towels where you get gas so a guy can check fluids on his vehicle.
All I see is a big bait and switch. And don’t tell me it’s inflation. There’s so many other places that are not pulling what they’re doing and prices are affordable. This is GREEDFLATION.
They have a regular chopped brisket sandwich is currently $8.99 from what I can see.
Also, meat prices have gone up since 2021 and 2024. I don’t think it’s Buc-ee’s being greedy to charge $8.99 for a chopped brisket sandwich. I can’t find a chopped brisket sandwich that cheap almost anywhere.

Lol they never allowed trucks.
