    He's not odd looking. That's the look of a beaten down man. Looks to me like he's the victim of the infamous Yuba City Piss Bomber. If someone can post that photo of him I would appreciate it. Beware of this man and his flip flops and track suit.

    I dont buy fuel etc there because they dont give points on things like scales in my experience. If they did (when I did use the card) I would have continued to use it. So yes, I dont use the card & and miffed because they dont give points on anything but fuel in my understanding.

    I'm tired of loves , pfj and the trash ( fuel island Parker's)clientele they attract , and my carrier has cut a deal with ta petro also with a decent discount .
    I'm done with fast trash food too .
    Hate to say it but paid parking has taken some of the stress out of my life in some areas of the country .
    Looks like ta petro is going to get more of my fuel business .

    You won't regret it, that's the only chain I stop at. And you'll see far more owner ops stop and park there than those mega cess pools.

    I don't think so. I was off the road for awhile doing local a few years ago, and I still had points.

    I do like TA/Petro for how much parking they usually have and their stores and restaurants but beyond that usually don’t care for them. Having rewards is great though. Someone said Loves & PFJ attract trash and fuel island Parker’s. I see that at TA/Petro as well and many owner ops do it as well do stop blaming just the mega carriers. I am no longer with a mega carrier and it’s nice because I don’t have to deal with the crap anymore but all truck stops have it’s issues and I’ll be glad to park at any of them and I go usually where ever fuel is cheapest ‍♂️ but may consider just choosing one for fueling. No idea
