    That is a shame, Pilot will get rid of the buffet and replace it with a McDonald's or Subway, and everything will increase in price.

    They never really recovered after they burnt down. Complete rebuild but couldn't make a go of it. The restaurant closed some time back and it was only a matter of time for the rest of the stop.
    Hard for an independent to make it when so many drivers fuel somewhere else, buy their food at WalMart, then just want a place to park.

    Aren’t the One9 stops all the ones Pilot/FJ have run into the ground to the point they no longer want them associated with the easily-recognized parent company? At the rate they’re going, all their locations will qualify for One9 status. I don’t even consider them, anymore.

    I don't get by there too much anymore, thankfully, but I know that they built a Loves on the other side of the freeway.

    When I hauled out of Nashville, didn't matter what time of the day or night, I always stopped by the North Forty for an excellent meal.
