Wow pretty cool! Reminds me of the Buccees stops here in Texas. Funny thing is besides all the pumps & food most people rave about how clean the bathrooms always are.

They built a Buckees in Florida last year at the Baldwin Beach exit to Orange Beach. It has 100 pumps and at times I’ve seen at least 75% of them in use! It’s a huge place. When they were building it I never thought there could be that many people use a station at one time. Crazy.

And I thought Little America in the 80s had a lot of pumps.
Looking for photos, etc from 60s era Shell-A-Rama gas station and Pal's Diner, Rt. 17 Mahwah, NJ & US or state highway signs, shields, route markers

Wow, really is representative of the commercial excesses of America isn't it. Now believe me, I am as much a consumer as the next person, no tree hugger here. But HOLY ***** talk about excessive convenience . Everything you want, don't need, and more. Anytime I am in traffic in a big city like Chicago or LA, all I can think of is we too freaking many cars!! But then I go "cool! I want one of those!"
Hypocrite and dichotomy all at the same time!
Love motorcycles, got eleven right now, dealing on others. Looking for a 1948 to 1954 Jawa 350 Twin.

Just had a similar conversation at dinner last night about the small hope that the number of cars on the highways might decrease a little due to the number of people working from home, etc. I think a lot of companies will realize there is some benefit to that, etc etc. One can only hope.
