“Hey thank God You can park a truck here! I guess that makes you guys a truck stop! That's pretty awesome to me and y'all should really come up with the new food item to be famous for besides that same bean burrito that's sold in every other convenience store from the West Coast to the east coast and they all come out of one little manufacturer out of LA. Pretty crazy you can get the same all six world famous burrito at an Indian run gas station in nowhere Nebraska or a little corner shop there in one of the burrows of New York City.

Would be pretty cool to know”
