In the bigger stations , it's the isles of Knick Knacks and souvenirs, I have to guide the misses around that area or we might be stuck there a while. haha

wtf, lol. What, is it a master bath of a $750,000 house in each stall?

This I gotta see. I've never even heard of that gas station, ever.

They have BBQ, every food you can imagine, a Country store...the bathrooms are literally little private rooms.

In other news, family member most likely picking up a '22 Black on Black Yukon Denali with 20k miles in the morning.

At least I sure hope so.

Thats pretty funny. Given the license plate I’m guessing moonshine, weed or a dead body.

Lol it’s just an old POS Jerry-rigged Buick. I don’t see any probable cause but rigging the thing with locks…maybe a little more trouble than it’s worth?

Though the engine under the hood (in great condition) I’d choose over LOTS of crap today, that’s for sure.

I had already heard about it just in passing on the news----120 gas pumps!!!! It's HUGGGGGGE. I'll pass getting gas there, though.
I heard they sell their gas really cheap to the point where other stations have complained. However, I looked and it doesn’t seem like it’s top tier gas if that matters to you.

Somewhat of a stereotype, but yes, possible.

(of course, I know my earlier Godfather-posting in this thread was also a stereotype LOL)
