    The TA in gary just needs to be bulldozed.

    I used to lease to an outfit out of Hammond, kind of liked the fact that I could park at the shop, and there was a strip club right there. Was way more interesting than watching lot lizards climb from bunk to bunk.

    I always prefer Petros. I havent been to them all but have been to many. They are always massive and the fuel islands are seperate from the main building. Some of them are like shopping malls. It saddens me they could not win the TS war probably due to not ever really getting the big company fuel stop network. TA and Pilot are the worst and they wind up winning.
    Anyway where are the bad petros?
     
    roaddawg92 and halfburn Thank this.
