    I have already sent an email to Pilot informing them of their bad decision. I'm sure it won't do any good but I feel better telling them why it's a terrible decision. I told them that they don't have idle aire and if they don't have the food then they'll have nothing to compete with.

    Sheesh. Keep the cheap garbage from China they try and sell but get rid of the food. *grumbles more*

    First thing they will do is get a back hoe and dig big craters in the parking lot so it will be uniform with other pilots..:biggrin_2554:

    What will they do with all of the extra room?

    Pilots have to be small.:yes2557:

    Since I been back out here I noticed some of the newer Pilots have plenty of room. Plus, it is rumored (and I have seen it at a couple) that Pilot and Denny's have an agreement to place Denny's restaurants in some Pilots. I would not be suprised if that's what they do with most of the Flying J's. Plus, Idle Aire signed a deal with Pilot to equip all Pilots with Idle Aire....

    Pilot's been pretty busy.

    Some of the newer Pilots have been built larger. Most have smaller lots. The older Pilots that are larger are from the older Williams they bought out.

    When did they sign that? I thought that had been put aside and not done.

    Thanks for the info.
