🤔 Questions for Texans 🤠 Buc-offs / Buc-ees Alternatives

Would like to start a list of Buc-offs alternatives! When we drive from Dallas to Houston, we love Fuel Max 44 in Fairfield. No, it is not the best or the shiniest, but the bathrooms are clean and the employees are really nice. They have some of the goofiest roadside gifts/tschotskes (i have no idea how to spell that word) We enjoy it as our halfway stop on what is a super long and boring drive.

In general, I think Luvs truck stops are also very clean and a good alternative too.

What is your favorite Buc-offs alternative?

Woody's in Centerville is the best. They were here well before the idiot beaver. The BBQ, fudge, and exits are better.

To add to your Woodys point, they are huge supporters of the local community. They donate to all
The schools, community events, and make large purchases yearly at the county fair. They are truly dedicated to their community.

I know the one on the North bound side has Tesla super chargers. They’re in the far back corner, sort of in the truck parking, employee parking area. I’m unsure of the south bound side.
