    I always fuel at the QT on Miller in Buckeye by my house and get my snacks there too.

    They have some pretty good sandwiches and they're always so #### friendly and fast.

    Now I'm perplexed... Part of me now really wants to try these awesome dogs... While the other part wishes to join you in boycotting.

    Choices, Choices.... Hmmmm

    See the T/A in Tonopah has awful corndogs. I have this small corndog addiction, and have even taken the 2 for $1 that sat in the fuel island all day in that T/A. The ones at the Pilot in Quartzite are bad too. The J in Ehrenburg has good ones.


    Not boycotting all of them just the local one. I will be spamming hate mails to their corporate until a few corndogs are returned for night drivers, and the discrimination is put to an end.

    I am mostly a night driver and it annoys me when I stop for something hot, anything really, and there is NOTHING. The only purpose I came in here was to eat something and my options are chips or chocolate bars??? For this reason I have a very short list of places I even consider stopping at during the night. Once again peanut butter sandwiches to the rescue ...lol

    Jimmy Haslam doesn't get the Lions share of where I spend my money anymore. Ripoff on fuel price. Never a shower ready. Always had to wait to buy my store items. Most other customers are generally a holes parking in the fuel island or otherwise not in designated spaces. Parking lot often garbage everywhere and dumpsters overflowing. No thank you Pilot flying j. There are many better options for me.

    They all definitely are not created equal. I think most are adequate, and some are really nice, and some are holes, but not that many. The guy I do super regional with has the fuel discount at J & Pilot, so I always fuel there, so I shower there, but then I almost always drive to a Petro or T/A to eat and spend the night, especially if there is a Petro within range.
    The guy I was leased onto doing OTR had the fuel discount at Petro & T/A, so I always just ate at Petro, and that was a much better set up, spoiled me really lol. But the J has the best corndogs. I all I want is a F corndog.

    That J is one of the biggest landfill dump stops in the nation. Just look behind the trucks. Don't ever let your dogs walk there for they will get ill. I reported a kitchen person once because she spent a long time in the restroom stall then just walked out, no washing hands, mmh yucky.

    I was hit by the big metal shower head on my chin when adjusting it. Had a nice black bruise there.

    The former manager was a good guy who cared. The J has gone down since he left.

    Calling corporate customer line and use strong description to make the telephone people nauseous is the only thing that helps.
