“Lots of pumps, property remarkably clean for a gas station, with plenty of snacks and drinks inside the convenience store. The employees are always polite and professional, even when they were really busy, and some of the customers were being obnoxious. Extra points given for their patience.”

“Saturday night, just before closing at 6pm, i stopped to fill my tank. Everything went fine until i couldn’t start my car to pull away from the gas tank. In jumps my hero, Adam, who got a booster for my battery which seemed to be the problem. After several tries, it still wouldn’t start so he offered to push my car away from the pumps to a nearby space. Man, I never thought he could do that! Someone jump in and helped him. He kept an eye on me (Senior citizen) and watch for the tow truck and made sure my son arrived to be with me after the store closed at 6. Adam was so kind and caring and made sure i would be safe after he left! Adam went above and beyond for me! In my eyes, he is the employee of the year! Thanks, Adam!!”

“Audrea was a spectacular help harboring me for an absolutely horrific 5 hour ordeal where I had to leave a disabled vehicle while awaiting a tow. In addition, the night shift employee the night before was a solid help letting me have the car parked there while I arranged transportation. Helpful, friendly staff all around!”

“I chose M&A based on the comments and they were 100% spot on( besides the negative ones complaining about parts 6 months after the fact?) BILL is a great guy and he cares! We had few delays on getting my truck but I was being patient and also understand that life happens. They did a great job on my truck and when it came time to pay up(I was so nervous cause we're living on 1 paycheck waitin for disability and didn't want to have to use a credit card of need be I didn't want have to another bill in the month on top of ones we have, I was freaking out because we became a 1 paycheck couple since my wife's diagnosis of neuropathy and having to quit her job because of that fact. When he handed me the bill he seemed kind of nervous but when I looked at it he put his hand out for a shake and I had to give him a hug and i did. Other places don't care about your life and the troubles you have going on in it but he did. If I would've taken to somewhere else the bill would've be $2000 to $3000 more than we could afford. Bill is like me, no bs, to the point and actually cares. I'm not sure how he does it because every time i stopped by to see progress on my truck he was constantly busy, he is not only the owner but also receptionist, parts guy, billing dept., scheduling services,... they were Lil short handed with mech.s and occasionally the one mech. working on my truck had to be called out for other jobs(semis)I'm not sure how he's still doing it but I'm glad he is. If you have issues with your diesel or semi and him your business. He told me that things starting to pick up after the covid bs that effected everyone even diesel repair shops. Bill if you read this, THANK YOU so much and may our Father and his Son bless you and your entire family, friends and loved ones💛 Love you brother in God. A fully satisfied customer, Tim. What i wrote above is no bs or a bot and I have the receipts to prove it!”

“Best price for diesel in the area. I drive out of my way to fuel up here just so I'm not putting money into a thieves pocket for the convenience. I hate spending $120-130 to fill up once or twice a week, but this place is definitely cheaper than 14&176, 120&Chappell Hill, and Casey's.I'll delete this post if they jump on that bandwagon.Went here again today, and it's 20 cents cheaper a gallon.”

“always has the lowest fuel price vs. other stations nearby me. Does not have a walk-in cashier & convince store like most. They have a small brick walk up behind glass. You pay cash there & also can purchase cigarettes or various choice of bottle beverages. Has 6 full service pumps, all covered by a generously large canopy. It's well lit at dusk but they are not open late. I like it.”

Read the postLove's Travel Stops is rolling out a new system that turns work into a game for its restaurant employees. Picture this: Three big screens in each restaurant, tracking how fast workers greet customers, take orders, and hand out food. It's not just for show - early results say it's making service 11 seconds faster on average.
