Near the intersection of I-44 (between Tulsa and Springfield) and I-49 (between Kansas City and…read moreFort Smith), there are a bunch of large and small gas stations. Prices are very competitive and they're all within a cent of each other, and inexpensive to boot. With the extra 10 cents off per gallon for being a Love's Rewards Member, Love's was an easy choice to fill up today. The station is easily accessible from the interstate and the pump area is wide enough for your larger vehicle. Inside, lots of grab-and-go food, a variety of rolled meats on the hot dog grill and options for hot and cold drinks. Restrooms are clean, too. Be sure you're giving way to those truckers. They might not see you and they don't stop quickly with those loaded trailers. [Review 1509 of 2025 - 481 in Missouri - 25060 overall]

It's a pain in the butt because you do have to get off the highway and drive for a few minutes. But now it's even worse . It's not this place's fault specifically. It's the construction. To get off the freeway and to get to the gas station took 25 minutes. And to get back on the freeway, took an additional 20 minutes. My husband was very upset. Pros: this has been a very trusted stop for many years. But I don't think we'll be coming back here ever again.

They have all the usual drinks you'd expect at a larger gas station. Where it shines is everything else on top of that. The giant soda fountain with two kinds of ice and many choices.

They have the check out devices where you don't have to use your code so check out is fast.

We love all the Route 66 throwbacks and really hope they never change the Route 66-themed bathrooms or move the Mother Road show semi out front. It gives the whole place such a fun, nostalgic vibe you don't find at most travel centers. There are tons of food choices, a truck wash/tub, and even a barber on site which is pretty rare these days. Everything is well kept and the staff is always friendly. Special thanks to Pat for the nice laugh this morning -- she sent us off smiling before we hit the road. Always a great stop when we're passing through Missouri.

Multiple national fast food outlets plus a full service Iron Skillet provide dining options. Of course, gas and diesel fuel are available. Naturally, there's a laundry. Showers available. Restaurants are as clean as can be for a busy stop.

Why does Pilot deserve five stars, you ask? After numerous treks back and forth to Oklahoma, here…read moreare a few reasons why I always stop: 1) This is one of the last or first stops (depending which way your are headed) before/after Oklahoma's abominable turnpike. If you are driving west, this is a great place to hit up since your options are limited for quite a few miles into OK. 2) This Pilot is busy. No matter what time at night or early morning, there are always a lot of people around and as safe as any place you will find. I have actually slept in my car here when I was super tired and couldn't make it all the way home w/o a little rest. 3) It is clean, appears well kept and has an adjoining full sized Wendy's. Aw...how I love Wendy's. :( I have driven all over the country (mostly by myself) and having a consistent, clean place to stop makes travelling and planning stops - easy!

The shower was clean, the employees were awesome, and the food was good. On August 20, I was with…read moremy food on my way to look at the antennas. I was not near the door, but was walking talking to my girl. This truck driver approached me and said that I should thank him for opening the door for me. I was puzzled. I figured out what happened later. He was trying to stir up something with me. He thought that I was white. I'm not, but light, tan mix of Arabic and 1/4 African black. My girl's picture appears on my phone and she's half French and black, but has more clearly west African features. Most American blacks are really awesome people and I have the utmost admiration of their struggles and triumph in spite of the obstacles they have faced. But this truck driver was a classic hood rodent who should be incarcerated (I'm sure that he has been incarcerated several times. ) I felt really sorry for him, because I knew that he didn't have a father and his mother was, more than likely, a street walker or crack addict. His English was horrible and this may have been due to bad or absent parents. It was scary when it happened, because I could see him going primate over minor things. When you encounter these hood rodents, realize that their parents were to blame for their son's formative years. Don't judge him. He may act very animal and savage-like, but he is a human being. I pray to Allah to help and change him from a savage animal void of any brain to a productive citizen. The moral of the story is to be careful with hood rodents. Realize that they're human(Even though they don't act it.). Pray to Allah or your god for him/her to change.
