The only problem I have with Buc-ee's is that if you're on a road trip and just want to make a quick stop, hit the bathroom, grab some drinks and fill up it takes way too long. Just dealing with the traffic and crowds eats up time that you don't lose at smaller places. On the other hand, we live near one and sometimes I just stop by to get a sandwich and shop a little if I'm not trying to get anywhere. They always have some interesting snacks and food.

Buc-ees was a weird coincidence I stumbled upon at 2 a.m. on a long drive to Florida. While my mom was driving, I used gas buddies to locate the cheapest gas and it was 10-20 cents cheaper than everything around it. Because of previous adventures, we joked that it was probably some backwater mom and pop shop that only did cash. We kept our hopes low and approached cautiously. Did not expect to see a massive storefront surrounded by hundreds of pumps. Even at those dead hours, they had a relatively good flow of customers. It was amazing.

If Bucc-ees is going to be on the way on a roadtrip we make it a destination. You know the restrooms are clean, gas is cheaper, shopping around is fun, and plenty of great food to choose from.

I live in TX and there is a insane amount of love for Buc-ees here. Well deserved too. They also have their own soda brand and if I could I would buy their Rootbeer by the truck load.

Stories that I’ve heard from people that have worked there it actually isn’t as great as many think, starting with the fact that employees get only one 5 minute break during a shift or as they call it a “5 minute lunch” in which they can’t even sit or use their phone while on fucking break! On break! And not just that when employees clock out they have to wait until they leave the premises completely to use their phones and they prohibit tattoos and colored hair which surprises me considering that fact that they are a gas station convenience store and based on the type merchandise they sell and demographic they appeal to it surprises me they have these kind of rules and policies for employees which i think is outdated and stupid and from what I’ve heard they overall treat employees like shit, i even heard a story about them firing an employee for smoking in his car ON HIS DAY OFF! HIS DAY OFF!!!! You don’t even need to be on the clock or on shift to get fired for doing non work related things on your DAY OFF!!! If you drive to the premises and they use the $15/$17 or $18 the hour pay as an excuse to treat people in such way, funny how they pull the $15 excuse like they are the only place that pays that salary when there are a thousand other places that pay the same who have the same benefits idk why they think they are special or think they can fool people and worst of all they get away with breaking so many employment laws so i would do research and maybe look for videos made by former employees sharing their experiences and think it through before making a decision that could possibly leave one with Job PTSD.

Bucee's is the most magnificent concept in the world.PERIOD....Truck Stops are for Trucks! Bucee's is for 4 Wheeler's! Also, Bucee's has a very warm family friendly atmosphere! PS they have better eye candy too!

I remember growing up in Pearland during the late 90s and early 2000s when Buc-ee's was still largely a Brazoria County thing. Now they've spread to most of Texas and have the world record for largest gas station.

Pearland is brazoria county

Buc-ee's is planning to replace the Luling location (built in 2003) and build a store at 75,000-square-feet (1000 square-feet bigger than the next largest location). It will be located next to the existing location and will be their largest location. The current Luling location was the first “family travel center” and so the decision was made to make sure this site was once again the largest location.

@@highping1786 To really build one the size the like to build they would need a rather large chunk of land. I they have 2 as you get closer to Houston in Waller and then Cypress. There is the one is Bastrop too. I think they keep the one in Giddings open since it is so small and tiny. You could put the entire store into the Bathroom at one of the new locations.

I got to go to one several times in Daytona Beach Florida and really liked it a lot. I'm so glad they are bringing it to my state (SC) and hopefully it will be nearby.

I live in Jacksonville, Florida and often host people on their way to Disney. Now people passing through often ask to be taken to Buc-ee's. Buc-ee's has a fan club and I can see whey. They rock!!

I've been to dozens of Buc-cee's across the state of Texas, and I cannot ever remember seeing the Buc-cee's statue... I guess I'm going to have to look next time for this so-called iconic piece of Texas history LOL

I've grown up around trucks, and my dad was a truck driver for over 30 years. Truck drivers can be very disrespectful to property. Leaving trash and pee bottles in the parking lots, damaging the parking lot, and leaving the restrooms a mess. Of course not all drivers are like that, but way too many are. I wouldn't doubt that's the real reason Buc-ees doesn't build their property for trucks to use.

Two things. That longest car wash is the longest damage to your cars paint, especially if group of mudders went through ahead. Also any gas station convenience store has idiots leaving their cars at the pumps usually during the busiest times of the day. Not hating it, but that's what happens. The prices and quality of food items is pretty decent for just a 'gas station store'. Also unlike snack brands that give you a bag half full of product, Buc-ees fills them to the top.

Paint starts stripping off after a year in direct sun for more than 16 hours every single day . Is not the carwash fault is just nature destroying everything non organic

Little known Buc-ee's fact that this video does not mention - when the Giddings location on Hwy 290 opened in the early 2000s, it had unisex bathrooms. They didn't go over big and were replaced with traditional men's-women's bathrooms in short order.

I live near that location. It is a tiny dump compared to the others.

At any given time, I'm usually about 5 days between Buccees sliced brisket sandwiches....either just had one or will be getting another soon.

I drove through TN and went into a Buc-ee's and freaked out. So busy, so huge, and so good.

I heard about Buc-Cees via the internet a few months ago, then an article in a " local " newspaper mentioned that another location was opening 60 miles from where I live...making 2 locations within 60-65 miles. With just a bit of a trip out of my way I tried to visit the closer location, but there was a line to get into the parking lot.

Great that they pay and value their employees so highly. Attention: WalMart! The insistence on clean and big restrooms is also very commendable. They are clearly customer friendly as well. Those are good touches. It is odd, however, that they don't accept truckers. With all their space, it should be easy to build a side lot for 18-wheelers.

I would love to see Bucky‘s create some truck stops but honestly you would have to hold drivers accountable with camera systems because you know the mess that some of them make and what you do as you hold the company that the driver works for hold responsible and don’t allow those companies there anymore I guess would be a way to approach it. Me as a handicap truck driver I’m not gonna park on the road and hop on my wheelchair and go across the parking lot trying to dodge cars and campers and not get run over. GA and Petros have three or four handicap truck parking spots each there are maybe four loves that have a couple spots but honestly loveS downfall is they let people park anywhere they want and people get blocked in all over the place flying Jay’s have gone straight downhill the last 15 years ever since pilot bought them all their facilities have deteriorated no upkeep no updates no nothing and now they finally want to start.

Buc-ees figures that 18 wheelers have TA, Loves, Flying J s, so they will concentrate on all the 4 wheelers, RVs, pickups and everything in between on the roadways.

Buc-ees in New Braunfels is between San Antonio and Austin on I-35. If you're driving between San Antonio and Houston you go to the Buc-ees on I-10 in Luling. Truck stops are for truckers.

We love Buc-ee’s can’t wait until my next visit..gas station food shouldn’t taste this amazing the best Brisket I have ever had! Come for the food stay for the gas!!

Let’s hear from employees. They probably can’t say anything or they will get fired. How about former employees? I hear that the pay is good but they are treated like crap. They have to sign contracts that seem unreasonable. Some of them are not allowed to sit down during breaks and have to be on standby in case they are needed during their break.Their shifts are long and you have to buy your own branded clothing from them.

I want to hear from other Black people. My experience was “What do you want? And followed around the store. This was the one off the expressway heading to Dallas.

I was a truck driver and I stopped at the location back in 2004 in Luling, Tx. on I-10 just east of San Antonio. They had a couple of spots where you can fit an 18 wheeler on their property that was unpaved near their trash dumpsters. I was sleeping and then there was a knock on the door. I got up only to see a Deputy standing outside. I rolled down my window and asked me if anyone had asked me to leave the property. I told him no and that I had parked there at 03:00 AM. and it was now 08:30 AM. He wanted to see my drivers license and told me that I needed to leave or that I would be charged with trespassing. Well I left and have never been back to any Buc-ee's since. I live in El Paso and even if I am in my private vehicle I won't give them my business. I wonder if a truck delivers their products so they can stay in business? Wellllllll Yessssssssss! Maybe we should boycott them and never deliver any loads to them.

Sounds like that deputy was a real asshole. You shoulda told him to pound sand.
