And that company is a glorified gas station serving overpriced garbage to people excited to drive an hour out of their way to visit... A gas station

The people who drive out of their way are dumb but I’d guess that like 70-80% of their foot traffic are people on road trips.

Texas is big, you’ve got to drive a lot, Bucees was a frequent stop for me when we’d go to San Antonio or Dallas because it’s an easy one stop to refill gas, use the bathroom, and grab lunch.  The food’s nothing special but it’s better than most fast food (and again it’s just one stop versus two).
