No, you just underestimate the size of a buc-ees.

Buc-ee's would have to be 220,000ft tall to be able to see it from 580 miles away.
Not accounting for refraction.

Have you been to a Buc-Ees?

Hundreds of pumps. It's a goddamned ocean of concrete and steel. You can use the main building as a shelter for a mid-sized town and have enough bathrooms. It's a fucking department store serving as a gas station.

They're goddamned massive.

Hundreds of pumps And no open ones because everyone parks and sits there while they go inside

Yeah, sadly, it seems no matter how ample the parking, people will still just take a pump.

I kinda get it, but at this point, we should all know better. Leave one person behind to pump and park, you're going to be in the building for awhile just trying to get snacks and get checked out. I've never seen our local less than packed inside.
