“Super convenient since I had spent the night in the Sprinter van parked in the Walmart parking lot in sight of this gas station. And super cheap because you can use Walmart Pay to get 3c off per gallon (or more if you're a Walmart Plus member).Nicely covered, inexpensive fuel, a squeegee for taking off some of the dead bugs from the windshield. All good in my book.”

“I grew up not far from here in Jasper, MO When I'm passing through Carthage I stop here to fill up because it's on my route home on Old US Route 66. (now US 96) I love the attraction of the plane! Any station would be just as good, maybe. Lol A part of me lives here in the Ozarks.”

“Stopped in at Pete's (while traveling through the area during the holidays) for a fuel up and to use their restrooms. This appears to be a relatively new, or remodeled, gas/convenience station, as everything looked new and clean. The staff also seemed kind/friendly. Will definitely make another stop in the future, the next time I'm passing through.”

“I go there almost eveytime I get money. When I go it's a TEN OUT OF TEN for me I'm always with either my family or a friend and I live about a couple streets down so im always walking there. Their slushies are AMAZING and I LOVE the spilt cups . It's also just AMAZING how they have it open 24/7 cause if anything ever happens or if im hungry I could just go there and get something. I hope they never shut down this place it's always gonna be my favorite gas station.”
