I would stop in for the bathroom.

Like a Walmart, Cracker Barrel, and a truck stop had a 3-way and out popped this abomination. I went once, never again.
Actually fuck Buc-ees or whatever that gross Republican beaver is.
And here on the East Coast we already have Wawa and Sheetz so let's not pretend Beaver Barn is special in literally any way.
Except the beaver nuggets
Very clean bathrooms.
I've never been disappointed in a Sheetz or Wawa bathroom, but I guess maybe I could just have good luck on that one
Sheetz is the goddamn best my god.
Don't try to park overnight at Bucees, they'll kick you out and threaten to have you towed if you don't leave fast enough.
And notice how they have a bunch of fresh cooked food but no place to sit and eat? All they want is your money and then for you to gtfo quick.
no place to sit and eat
Jokes on them, I eat right inside the store.
Arch Aplin, the owner of Buc-ee's, is a huge Republican donor who backs Trump-aligned candidates in Texas. Buc-ee's lost me when they opened one in Bastrop on 71 and planted a billboard over Hruska's, trying to drive away their business, but I would never go there regardless.
So villainous Dolly Parton is opening a series of alternative chains
Perusing the comments here makes me glad to be loyal to no corporation. I really have Nestle to thank. Knowing how evil they are from a young age has proven one of the best barometers.
The only reason I stop at Buc-ees when I'm driving past is because they actually clean the bathrooms. Worst part of many road trips is stopping at normal gas stations where the bathroom hasn't been touched by a cleaning product in a very long time.
How's their stall door sitiation
They have German-style stall doors where even your feet are not visible from outside
Exactly.
It's always an unknown factor at other places. Some of them you feel like you are taking your life in your own hands.
But Buc-ees is always a guaranteed a clean experience.

Their entire business model is build around a Clean Bathroom, literally everything else is just there because you wanted to not have to worry about sanitation

This post just shows how many Americans are on here. Buc-ees is shit. What other country would turn a gas station into a tourist attraction. Its sort of like a church for giant gas-guzzling child-smashing cars. Oh and dont forget to take a shit while you are there, tell your friends!
Preach brother! Smite the ignorant heathens for they willingly choose retardation instead of glory.
I mean Rudy's is all right. Best "bad" BBQ you'll ever eat. Started in gas station and is now a chain across Texas and a few other states. Original gas station is still there, only now it's just a restaurant. They make my favorite BBQ sause.
In France there's some really nice gas stations on some of the popular highways. In the summer there's so many tourists going on vacation through these that some of them even set up temporary art exhibitions or special activities like bouldering, bow&arrows, etc. I remember doing my first "dive" in a special water cube on the parking lot of Montélimar's station when I was a kid, good times. Of course none of that is even remotely similar to putting a beaver themed slop-shop and calling it a day, the shops mostly just sell local products and the usual essentials.
French gas stations just make me think of 'The Vanishing'. Such a great film.
I would be so interested to see what a gas station bouldering popup looks like...
That's a nice obscure reference there, lots of interesting trivia around that film and as a french living in NL, sounds like I should watch this. Looks pretty janky though haha.
Oh then you definitely should watch it! So long as you are okay with disturbing films that will stick with you.
Speaking of trivia: 'The film was disqualified from the Oscars due to too much French.'
France is doing it correctly, that sounds awesome. I wanna go to a gas station, get hopped up on some fumes and then start blasting arrows in every direction
In my lifetime the French petrol station toilets went from horrible squat toilets where you needed to bring your own paper to pretty well maintained, mostly really clean experiences.
There are still some stops without petrol stations that have unmanned toilets. Those can be a bit rough, but generally it's really good.
Yeah these days the standard on the toilets have gone way up (and stayed free, looking at you Belgium/NL), TBH for me even the unmanned ones are okay in case of emergency, it's more that these stops lack a simple row of vending machines imo so I only use them if I really just need a quick bio break, they could be so much better as a more nature/calm alternative to the ones with shops.
The big stations along "autoroute du soleil" have been huge for a while though, at least since my childhood over 30 years ago. Beaune, Montélimar, etc.

I hate Buc-ees but they do have clean bathrooms and they always have working EV chargers
I never heard of Buccees before but YouTuber Joe Scott hyped it up. But he's Texan so of course he's proud.
