My cousin worked at a prominent, north GA truck stop QT in the 90s. He died in a car accident in the mid 90s and there were tons of truckers that went out of their way on hauls to stop in for his funeral. I was somewhat younger and still remember today the impact he had on people he never knew, just because of his Word and his kindness with strangers. Was very moving

QT is the gas station God chooses
QT has by far the best price for ethanol-free gas in our area.

Use it in your power equipment or be sorry.

A lot of regional gas stations have stepped their game up imo. Both Quik Trip and Kwik Trip are down right pleasant to stop at.

Theyre starting to break away from their "market" set up and spreading more. Interested to see if their able to maintain their standards at the stand alone locations in places like shreveport. The ones in Wichita are immaculately run.

QuickTrip is a Tulsa, OK based company. An interesting note is that until recently, there was a gentlemen's agreement between 7-11 and QuickTrip that 7-11 would stay out of Tulsa and QuickTrip would stay out of OKC.

I've seen them IN the ghetto, but they're like an oasis. The store itself is the one bright spot.

I figured there had to be something like that going on. Didnt make sense to me they werent in OKC. Although OnCue does a good job of filling in that "space" there.

They just built one out at the interstate exit a few miles from my house.

It’s super nice and efficient.
Easily the lowest gas price in the area.

This is spot on. QT is amazingly fast, clean, and always has open gas pumps.

They also have great chili dogs. They blow 7-11 out of the water on every meaningful metric.
