Buc-ees is an insane idea on paper that when you see in person you realize how great it is. Their strategic placement (between 2 major cities in TX) make them ideal stopping places when doing road trips.

When UK colleagues come to visit I like taking them to Buc-ees....I always downplay it....like "yeah I think I'm going to stop and get some gas at this place up here"

For reference the average "petrol station" in the UK has 2-4 pumps and 1000sq/ft store attached. For them to see 120+ pumps and a 50000sq/ft "convenience store" freaks them out a bit....
