I hate on Pilot because they deserve it.
Yes, I'm aware that when one of them takes over the fuel at a small place it's because of piss poor management or from being not able to compete because of said big 3, so if ya can't beat 'em ya have to join 'em and sell your soul to save your livelihood. No matter which way it fell I'm glad they stepped in to keep the place afloat. As someone who lost a business I hate to see anyone's go under (except for the ####### who opened a place on the property I use to have, #### him), but I won't be back to fuel there.
I can deal with most Js, they're better then a lot of places. Pilots are dirty small ####ty places I won't go to unless it's the only way I can avoid a road service call because I ran out of fuel, but feel free to take advantage of all the better shaping, stocking and staffing that's at Emlenton now. Provided of course you can get to fuel island since there's no pull up area and nobody that was fueling there the 2 times I tried to in the past week cares enough to pull out and park before going in for their 30 like it use to be most of the time, be careful not to trip over the mattress in the parking area of the piss bottles on the ground that never use to be there before Pilot came in either because the people coming in now don't give a #### about themselves most of the time let alone someone Else's property, perhaps some of that better staffing will get off their ##### and pick it up.

I never know what to say in situations like yours because anything that comes out of my mouth will sound hollow. But sorry for your loss.

Appreciate it

Pennsylvania is very much like West Virginia when it comes to truck stops. In most areas the big three don't exist. If you own a truck stop you're pretty much ruling the roost in your area. If you fail, you weren't even trying. Parking at a decent place in either state is rare, especially on 80. If you fail, it's your fault. There is no competition in that area. So getting swept under the rug isn't about not being able to compete. It's about poor decisions and someone smarter taking advantage.

@Steelersjunkie
We will disagree about Pilots until judgement day, but I didn't mean to go ex-wife on ya. It's been a bad night, one I should have known better then to be communicating with people thru a computer or in person. I just looked at my phone now but not going to answer @ 1:40 in the morning since I seem to remember the ringer never gets turned off anymore.
I'm sorry man
