    Nah....we're not into actually solving a problem, we're more into political correctness.

    I can understand if you pull ahead of the pump and grab a pack of cigs, drink or use the can, but to take your 30 or shower or ??? I dont get it

    Closed for restocking? Renovations? Yeah mate its so frustrating coming to fuel up only to find a driver decides to park right in front of the fuel pumps and go to do his shopping all areas in front the pumps should be no parking anytime tow away zones.

    All the paradoxical irony you need lies in the notion that: Get them on the road and everyone wants to do 80mph; some can't find the brake to save their own lives. Get them to the fuel island and they're outpaced by a sloth.

    I'll take that all day vs a 57mph prime guy who is trying to maintain cruising speed all the way to the fuel island.

    It's either that or the one's that start out the exit, stop in the middle of the driveway with the qualcomm on the steering wheel waiting 3.5 minutes for their 30 minute break to be over so they can go back on line 3.

    So, did PFJ take all of these down? Only one I saw them at was that Pilot in east Amarillo and even those are gone now too. I'm guessing they were silently taken down after too many guilty parties complained about the shaming.
