I'm finding if I give the driver's wife an envelope with cash in it on Fridays I end up with a buddy for life and a happy driver. Happy drivers and I still save money. I'm all for it.

I hate standing in a payout line and looking at my shoes to see what I might have stepped in. 8^) As freight gets more cheap by the day I keep brain storming to save a $$$. Pappy told us kids " sometimes it ain't what you make that counts its what you get to keep"

I'll find out when the driver checks in. I'd guess its on South Wayside. I'm away from the office for a day or 3. I've been fueling at the Bucc-ee where the sign says NO TRUCKS. It's 1.34 there too.

Probly got tired of cleaning up blown out tires and pee bombs. The one over at Eagle Lake is the only one I've seen so far that has designated truck fuel and truck parking. The one at Luling will ask you to get your truck out too.

I was bobtail and was eating the food I just purchased in their deli when they told me I couldn't stay there but if I needed a place to park I could go across the street to the Whataburger. I'll never go back to one again.
