    Kind of a surprise to me that Pilot is using F J monicker instead of Pilot. Must be a public relations move due to the rebate rip off or a tax incentive somehow.

    How I see it:

    Pilot = fast food only (well subway)
    Flying J = Restaurant and hot (stale) food counter

    So with a diner = flying crook, Um hook..

    Back years ago this was a great place to stop. I went right on by this morning,normally stop to scale,but I don't do business with pilot/fj.so I set my wheels where I thought they should be, NC rolled me right across,so think I'm fine hit the bland scale"driver you're a thousand over on trl pull into parking spot make adjustment. You have one hour to make correction,but dont go past 41foot mark" I was already at 41.5,oh well pull around slide and roll.

    I stopped in a few weeks ago and asked if FJ was taking over, they told me fuel only, everything else would stay the same.

    never block the scale, there may be other trycks need to scale , then they end up sitting on the scale while they wait for you to come out

    That's the problem it won't stay the same,do you think they just switched to f/j for giggles? F/j came in with a offer don't you think they will have to live up to their end of deal or be "punished". For not being a good corporate partner?

    That's one problem,new signage says"trucks stop here to collect scale ticket".that mean only one truck at time can get ticket,if another truck on scale they have to wait or block shop door.used to be there were half dozen spots in front of shop.
