Buc ees
Those of you that have fueled up at Buc ees are they big rig friendly and if so where do park to go inside shopping. Do they primarily cater to autos, does big rig trucks fuel up there too. Any info appreciated since I being going by the new in Alabama in a few weeks.

They have large roomy spaces between pumps but no truck pumps as they are not allowed.

Bucees have hundreds of pump’s which provide lots of room for RVs with toads. And just as large parking lots. Acres of space in my experience.
Your biggest problem will be deciding which of the hundreds of flavors of Jerky at the Jerky bar.

I stop there all the time when we are traveling through Texas.
The fresh fried potato chips are really good

if you are in a longer rig, you will be able to fuel up with diesel or gas. If your longer rig is a 5er, or class A or class C with a toad, there are no dedicated parking areas that you will fit in but there are areas where you will be able to park.

All of the above is true. I stop at Buc ees often and with a toad.

Buc ees
Thanks for all the replies. One more question since I’m about 53 or so feet long with toad are the diesel pumps marked before I commit to turn into a pump lane

I parked our 63 foot MH and toad at a Buc-ees in Texas. There was plenty of room to pull up next to a curb way far out from the store. Did not get fuel there, though.

I live near the buc ees in Katy tx. I fill my 43' DP there often. I believe all the pumps have diesel but only a few have Def. The Def pumps are clearly marked and can be seen from a distance but I believe it is usually the end pumps. If they are busy you may have a problem finding a spot to park but generally there is room to park a rig with toad on the edge of the lots.

I plan my Houston-Dallas-Waco trips around stops @ Buc-ee’s. Lots of room for RV w/toad. Great for pet stops. Clean, plentiful restrooms. And good food/treats! Also have the sponsored Buc-ee’s CC, discount on fuel. If gas, some locations do have ethanol-free gas.

Depends on the Buc-ees, but most are very large with easy pull thrus. No high volume pumps but gas and diesel. We always stop, pick up food and then eat in the parking lot.

All of the new Buc ees are large but beware. When the guy "can't remember his name" started the business, he started out with small stores about the size of what I call standard convivence stores.
I've stopped at a couple or more of the older smaller ones. But not in an RV. The smaller stores are usually in sorta out of the way locations.
The Buc ees along the interstates and major highways should be what I'd call the super Buc ees.

It's not Top Tier so I don't buy gas there unless it is the only convenient option. They do have non-ethanol gas at the Denton store though so I might take the Vette up there for some pure high test.
