Do not resist QuikTrip. It's not that you will be assimilated, because they do not take over old stations, they build entirely new ones - and they are magnificent citadels to what a gas station can be: Pump after pump after pump.
I understand that the QT Kitchen actually has decent food (for a gas station), but I've never been in one, so I really don't know.
I do know that with many lanes at most every one, and "guaranteed gas" (whatever that may be - that they have it? that it's guaranteed to be gas?), and generally the lowest prices in town, I'm a fan.
Perhaps most amazing about this location especially is the bathroom. Now a lot of places have automated flushing. Some even have automated towel dispensers, and a few have automated faucets (airports commonly do). But what is notable here is that the automated faucets are warm water, and it works well - both to dispense warm water and to turn on and shut off when needed. Awesome.
