“A must stop on the Phoenix bypass. I kinda miss the old place with its funky vibes but this is still nice. The rug seller seems to be gone too. I still have a snake mug that I got there years ago.”

“My wife, daughter and I were traveling through on our way back to Colorado. We stopped at this Chevron for a quick bathroom break and some water. As we took another quick pit stop about and hour and a half down the road I realized I didn't have my wallet on me. I called them and spoke with Stephen Lutz.

Thank you for being so willing to help and save us some time on our journey back home. Alex”
