RaceWay

This RaceWay is located just off I-85 exit 173 (SR 17 - Lavonia, Toccoa, Elberton) in North Georgia…read morenear the Georgia-South Carolina state line. This gas station used be a RaceTrac (https://www.yelp.com/biz/racetrac-petroleum-store-608-lavonia), but it converted to a RaceWay at some point over the last several years. RaceWay sites, buildings, and gas facilities are owned by RaceTrac, but RaceWay stores are independently owned and operated. I'm generally a fan of RaceTrac-branded stations (they're company-operated). RaceWays are more hit or miss. This one was a huge miss. Overall, the station was dirty and grimy. The single men's restroom was in bad shape. The toilet was wet (seat and handle), filled with bubbled-up urine, and was hard to flush. The floor was wet with water and urine and there were bugs flying around. Luckily, the soap dispenser had soap. My gas pump (pump #1) was leaky. The nozzle was constantly leaking a steady stream of gas from the moment I undocked the handle to the moment I redocked the handle. With the way the wind was blowing, gas was drizzling everywhere. This pump was in dire need of repair. The station has 24 pumps. At least the gas prices were fair.

This place is nasty and no one cares. I told the manager the sink in the ladies room was leaking…read moreand there was water all over the floor. He just looked at me. I thought he didn't understand English so I repeated it. He just looked at me. I turned around and left.

All of that went well with a receipt printer that worked, a small discount for being on the Pilot fuel rewards program and clean restrooms. It's still strange to me to see a gas station in Georgia with gaming machines. Not pinball, these are gambling. But I guess some people "feel lucky" and here you can satisfy that urge. Lots of snack and drink options to choose from and even some healthy choices. [Review 249 of 2026 - 946 in Georgia - 25438 overall]

S&S Mobile Mechanic

I cannot recommend S&S Mobile Mechanics highly enough…read more On Monday morning, I left Virginia and began driving to Texas to relocate for a new job. I was traveling in my wife's minivan with our Labrador, Mia. During the trip, I began having battery and alternator problems. After replacing both the battery and alternator in North Carolina, the battery warning light came back on late Monday night. I drove to the nearest AutoZone and stayed there until they opened the next morning. The wonderful employees at AutoZone recommended S&S Mobile Mechanics, and I am incredibly grateful that they did. When I arrived, Chris, Shawn, and Shawn's wife warmly welcomed both Mia and me into their home. They made sure Mia had a comfortable place to rest while they immediately began inspecting the minivan. Chris identified the alternator problem within minutes and replaced it right there. They charged me only $150 for the service, which was extremely reasonable, especially considering how quickly they helped me and the situation I was facing. They were respectful, professional, compassionate, and genuinely good-hearted people. They understood that I was trying to make it safely to Texas and went above and beyond to help ensure that I could continue my trip without further problems. I am happy to say that Mia and I made it safely to Texas, and the minivan is running wonderfully. People like Chris, Shawn, and Shawn's wife give me hope for humanity. We need more people--and more companies--like S&S Mobile Mechanics in this world. As a retired Air Force Major who is accustomed to handling difficult situations, I can honestly say that their kindness and support brought tears of joy to my eyes. Thank you again for everything you did for Mia and me. I will never forget your kindness. Five stars are simply not enough.
