    It's on the frontage road. I'm not sure how many buildings from Thomas, but you can't miss it.

    i should have punched in the location for thomas fuel in my gps, i had a hell of a time finding kirkland brothers. Also, when i went to a place of buisness and asked if they knew where kirkland was at, i had the most trusting face tell me it was just over the over pass on the other side of I-20........yeah.

    ......he forgot to mention about the 13 miles east i still had to drive. I tell ya, here in texas, directions from people are hit and miss and its mostly MISS.

    Also, beware of the "texas mile". When someone says its a mile down the road.....times that by 5 and you'll be ok more often than not.

    lol!!!!! yur post was buzzin through my head the whole time i was lookin for kirkland brothers, it was a total crack up:biggrin_2559:.......yeah, you cant miss it was all i was repeating to myself when i was 13 miles away and drivin in circles, i got a sick sense of humor.

    .........oh, and one more thing, for those who are new to those service roads off I-20 in that area, the white painted triangles on the road next to a yield sign, well that means STOP

    jesus christ, i almost ran head on into a diesel rig atleast 3 times before it stuck in my head......and just because they dont have their signal on, it dont mean sqwat lol.

    fun times.
