    I can't stand most truckstop coffee, bitter, old & stale tasting. Until now! Pilot/Flying J is rolling out a new coffee via a fresh ground/brewed option. I've had it three times now and am extremely impressed by the richness and taste.

    I took this photo today at the Flying J in Aurora, OR. Each machine has three different bean options, so, in this photo there are 6 different options. Place your cup, tap the screen, tap the cup size, tap the bean option and voila! Fresh coffee! 0929171123.jpg

    I meant to post this a few days ago. Lady out in Tucson Pilot turned me on to that. Pretty good. @Dave_in_AZ might even appreciate that coffee.

    Looks far out. But I'm in full boycott of PFJ at the moment. I may bend a little depending on how things look Sunday.

    Maverick and some other places have Hi-Rev. The dude blowing a fire ring out his scooter lol. That's the kind. PFJ has a version of that. Petro & TA call it Extreme. When it's fresh, nothing better. I have a bag of Starbucks ( Which the Church is against ) Sumatra in the truck. That's the kind. I still have to make a decision on a maker though.

    Love's simply doesn't have coffee.

    My last trip out and back. Out of about 10 large cups of coffee, think I paid for 4. That's an acceptable ratio. lol. Not stealing either, just comp'd lol.

    I have a nice Keurig machine on my truck. I buy the Starbucks Sumatra pods in bulk via Costco online. I run the water through twice on the same pod and get a 20 ounce cup of coffee for an average of .58 per pod.

    Let's see how good it is after 6 months of incompetent maintenance from minimum wage truck stop employees.

    I figured that would happen in Seattle Washington or Portland Oregon before it got to the rest of the country
