    I couldn’t imagine a Buc-ee’s in Europe.

    In Texas there are signs for “Next Buc-ee’s 108 miles”. Do that in parts of Europe and you have to cross multiple international borders…and none of them will know wtf a mile is.

          There is? I just searched Google maps…I live in MA and it showed a response on Cape but it was actually a “Bucky’s”. It showed one in New Jersey but that was a podunk little place named Delta Gas.

          Northernest ones I saw were in Kentucky. There were closer ones to Europe…probably Florence SC, Pelham NC, or Daytona FL.

        As an ignorant American, does Europe even have billboards like America does?

        For context…Buc-ee’s takes pride in their exceptionally clean restrooms. Also idk if gross rest stop/truck stop restrooms are as much of a trope over there.

          At least not here (Switzerland).

          More in public restrooms. Bigger train stations have “Mr. Clean” since a few years now, clean and nice for 1.50 CHF. Not like the same service would make train billets much more expensive but anyway.

          But rest stops, we have as much as villages; all few km the next one.
