I'm traveling in my own personal vehicle leading the rest of my crew in the big rental Suburban carrying all our equipment. I know there's a Chevron right at the first exit at the bottom of Donner pass hill dropping into Truckee. Better watch you speed coming down that hill, its easy to get going way too fast! I call my guys to tell them I gotta stop, so we take the first exit and go through the round abouty thingy and the station is right there. All the chevron stations seem like they renamed the convivence stores to Power Markets. Whatever, it's still carries all the road food you need and restrooms as well. What I like about this location is it's super fast on and off the 80, easy to get back on the freeway! Service was fine, just don't get gas here unless you really have to, prices are off the charts high, like holy shit high! Restrooms were clean this time and the crew all used them as well as got some more road food. I think I can make it to the hotel now!

The Mexican place has limited hours. I haven't tried it yet, but when I do, I will write a review. The convenience store and the gas is open 24 hours. There is a post office here, but there is no counter service. It's primarily. P.O. Box and mail pick up by local residents. They do have a 24 hour mail drop, with pick up in the early morning. The convenience store is nice. It's clean, and the people are friendly. I like the decorations in the store. It has your usual. Beer, wine, food, snack, snacks, sundries, and it also has a small hardware section, which a good amount is winter gear. It has a small but nice souvenir section as well. Prices are pretty typical on some items, and then on others, they are a bit higher. I got an amazing beef jerky, and the price was reasonable for what I got They do sell chains in the winter time, but believe me, you are going to pay for them. There's plenty of parking, including truck and RV parking. There's also a popular snow park in the winter time. The elephant in the room, is, of course, the gas prices. You are pretty much in the middle of nowhere, with only a few gas stations in the immediate area, so you are definitely going to pay for gas. The best thing to do is fill up in Sacramento, Auburn, or Reno. The gas in Colfax and Truckee is a bit higher, but still well below what they charge here. I like this store. I will be back. Thank you.

THIS COMPANY VIOLATES THE LAW…read more I purchased gas and pulled around to the air station to add air to my tires. I went back into to ask the cashier (Catalina) to please turn the air on. She asked me if I bought gas to which is replied "yes" and again asked her to turn on the air. She said she would need to look at the cameras and asked me which pump I used. I shared which pump I had bought gas from and again asked her to turn on the air. I then went out to use the air but it did not come on. I went back to the cashier and asked her to please turn on the air again. Catalina then informed me that she needed to see my receipt. I pulled it from my pocket and asked her again to please turn on the air. She then stated she needed me to hand the receipt to her. I explained that this is not what the law requires and asked again for her to turn on the air. She continued to refuse until I personally gave her my receipt. I explained that providing a receipt is not a requirement or condiction to receiving free air under California law. I met all requirements when I purchased gas. Catalina continued to refuse to turn in the air. I ended up paying for the air and will seek reimbursement from Shell. If they refuse to reimburse me and change their illegal practice I will be filing a complaint with the state and filing a class action. SHAME ON YOU FOR VIOLATING THE LAW!!!!!
