Good Lordy alive, they are building these jokers every five miles around here if that far. They arent and never were focused on electric crap, during sleepy Joe's time, they were delving out the money to the Pakistanis and red dot foreheads left and right to build more petroleum stations.

If a Turbine headed Pakistani builds one the folks from India will get a grant to build one in short order. They dont like one another. I go in them them to ask questions and aggravate these idiots. I also applied for one of the same grants to build one, however I was denied. shouldnt surprise anyone.

with that said, at least they are on the main hurricane evacuation routes, so we can get the crack heads and derelicks north of us and we dont have to cater to the POS

There aren't enough truck stops. I have 3 within 15 miles of my house and there's overflow every night.

If you come down here here you will see the exact opposite of what you are seeing up there. I think, for the most part that it is a money laundering operation to fund nefarious events against our country.

Not many truckstops left. People are calling a gas station with a few diesel pumps and a few truck parking spaces truckstops. I hope pilot and loves gas stations all go bankrupt Companies now tell drivers where to get fuel. They buy it by the hundred thousand gallon for about 1/3 less than pump price. The gas stations no longer compete for drivers like the truck stops had too.

If you want save substantially on diesel prices check out mud flap.

What names of companies are you talking about Sheep? What brand. Who is booming down there like you are saying to lookup on the market to see how they are doing?

I will have to checkout mud flap.

Full truck stops and rest areas seem to be closed too. Not sure why. Never really thought about it before. Not sure I see more along the side of the road sleeping tho either.

On the Road.

The newest one going up have a logo of a bearded red headed character that is similar to a cartoon character. There are two of these within a 2.5 mile stretch.

fairly certain Savell has seen them as well in his neck of the woods and on his way to and from work.

Thanks.

Timewise is a brand of convenience stores and gas stations primarily located in Texas, formerly owned by Landmark Industries and now owned by Shell. They operate under the Timewise brand in the Houston, San Antonio, Austin, and Laredo areas. Shell acquired the Timewise stores from Landmark in
2021

In Texas, "Wise" is associated with the convenience store chain Stripes, which is owned by 7-Eleven and operates over 700 locations, primarily in Texas, Louisiana, New Mexico, and Oklahoma, according to Wikipedia. While not specifically known for "wise" gas stations, Stripes is a prominent convenience store chain in the region. Additionally, Texas has many other well-known gas station brands like Exxon, Shell, Valero, and Buc-ee's
++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The phrase "On the Road" doesn't refer to a specific brand of gas station, but rather describes a convenience store brand often found at Exxon and Mobil stations. On the Run is the name of the convenience store chain developed by ExxonMobil. These stores are known for being larger and offering a wider variety of products than traditional convenience stores, including fresh snacks, groceries, and quick meal options

google all gas stations within 10 miles of Livingston Tx. and see how many pop up. doubtful the ones that are under construction currently will pop up. But, I drove around and found 8 new ones that they are pouring in slabs on right now and every one of them is within a couple of miles if not within sight of another gas station.
