    In that case a pox on both of them. I don't know who is more despicable, someone who would boot one of their own customer's trucks, or someone who takes their break in the fuel island.

    i see no problem with them doing this since so many steering wheel holders like camping out on fuel pumps and blocking everyone..

    If I owned it there would be a limited time you can sit there (fuel receipt, drink refill and go)...and tow trucks would be standing by for violators. If you want to shop or order food...park and walk in and take all the time you want.

    I would blow right past places like this, and fuel somewhere peaceful.
    Those 7 mpg hwy trucks have such long range, they can be choosy.

    Condition of using the fill station.
    Fill and go, or if eating fill and park.
    otherwise
    Wheel brace/lock will be applied if lane has not been vacated with in 2 minutes.
    $100 fine to remove brace goes up $50 every 5 minutes to recover lost sales potential or not.

    play fairly and we will be happy
    have a nice day, manager.

    I won't waste time in line to fuel. Maybe Little America sees all the PO'd folks who just pull right through and head down the road. I've done it plenty right there.

    Pumps stacked 2 deep, see ya. I hate wasting money paying higher fuel prices, but i hate wasting time more.

    I don’t understand parking in the fuel island at little America. There’s tons of parking. You can double park up front and still not be an anyones way if your only doing a 30 min break. Used to do that all the time and I was pulling Rocky sets for my break when heading to Salt Lake City. They have great burgers and food there. Probably why some of these big boys can’t walk far.
     
    CatchUp, mjd4277, Snailexpress and 5 others Thank this.
