Since Buc-ee’s is deliberately not accommodating to semi truckers, I’m not surprised they don’t allow overnight parking for RVs or cars. Better chance at a Petro, Loves or Pilot since they are geared for truckers overall.
It's great that you guys asked the manager first before overnighting in the parking lot. My wife and I were full time RVers for over 2 1/2 years. We "always" went into Cabela's - WalMart - Cracker Barrel - etc. and asked to speak to the manager to get permission to overnight. We never just pulled into a parking lot and took it upon ourselves to overnight. You guys did it right. JT
Asking the manager is pointless, question should be what is company policy for overnight parking? And what is the local ordinance for overnight parking. Manger might be friends with the tow truck company… boot on the wheel, Walmart has no overnight parking in over 40 years.
Love 💕 Boondocking at Cracker Barrel’s overnight,and having their dinners and breakfasts! And don’t forget to check out the store which had great items for gifts! Thanks for your great video of Buc-eez which I have never been to before. Enjoy your travels and stay safe.
We just had a buc-ee's built in our area S.C. the one in this video looks twice as big as ours. They told us that trucks aren't even allowed to pull up in their parking lot. If they wanted to come shop there they had to leave their truck out at the road and walk to the store. I guess I can understand this trying to keep lot lizards of the parking lot, but at the same time it seems like they are missing out on a lot of money. Now since this place is supposed to be family oriented, I don't understand why they wouldn't let RVs park for the night in a designated area. Another thing I didn't understand is with the size of those bathrooms why they couldn't put a couple of shower stalls in there. We had a problem with our hot water briefly and thought that I would be able to take my senior citizen the mother-to-be family-oriented Buc-ees and get her a shower. No I had to take her to the damn pilot and sit there with a bunch of truckers waiting for shower. I haven't been back to buc-ee's since then. I mean they have got so much unnecessary crap in there, but is missing one of the things that travelers yearn for the most... A hot shower.
I do really enjoy watching them. It has become part of my regular viewing program. They are my absolute favorite. Especially the true love. They are a gorgeous couple, and they're super intelligent as well. One thing I can't understand for the life of me, is why they don't pooh in their coach. That's extremely weird to me. I laughed when I thought about that, and said maybe that's the secret to keeping the love so strong. 😂
You guys cracked me up! The graphic overlay when Tanya was trying the ghost pepper jerky was hilarious!! I thought that Tanya was on the express elevator heading down. Very far down🤣I have been sick for several days, and I must tell you that the laughs were greatly appreciated! 👍
I'm a new subscriber and I don't know exactly how I landed on your channel, but I did and here I am. I've settled in nicely, binge watching your videos & getting to know the both of you and your beautiful kitties. ( I'm, a 63 year old cat lady in Seattle WA.. I have two cats like yours, a black cat and a tabby and they are my life.). Anyhow, I absolutely loved the interactions between the both of you... You are both so genuinely entertaining. I AM very much enjoying & LOVING your channel. I'm here for the long haul.❤
I'm a Texan living in MN but travel often to TX for family. I love Buc-ee's! You didn't show the immaculate bathrooms! Bummer that you can't stay overnight (I have a 25' RV) but the gas is cheap, DEF at the pump, and that brisket sandwich brings me back every time! New to your channel - had to watch your trip to Buc-ee's though! Happy travels!!!
I live in Houston and we recently built our campervan. We travel to many State Parks in Texas and love stopping at Bucee’s. You guys bought a lot of stuff. I’m disappointed Bucee’s didn’t allow you to stay overnight. Their parking lot is huge
This was a very well thought out video. Intelligent, too. No other Vanners use effects to enhance their work. This is the first video of yours I have seen. Suffice to say that - despite it being 2:00 a.m. here in Edinburgh - I am about to begin binge watching your channel. Here goes......
For those who are not familiar with the Fort Worth area, just drive 1/4 mile south from Bucee's onto I35W SB to Cracker Barrel. They have no problem with over nighters. It sounds like you drove twenty minutes further up north to the Denton Bucees. Wish Bucee allowed over nighters; we all spend enough money there: gas, meals, drinks, junk food and lots of souvenirs. We all love Bucee's but one thing that really bothers me, is that there are no tables or benches to sit down and eat the sandwiches and stuff you just bought. Still love 'em though and when family comes to town, that is always the first place we all head to.
This was the first time I’ve seen your channel. I loved it. You and your husband are my kind of people. Your earrings look great. Looking forward to seeing more of your life 🙂
Thanks, yes! We still ask the managers at those locations where RVers park overnight when we arrive! Cracker Barrel is one of our favorite quick overnight spots.
Hi. Love the video! A few weeks ago, while driving from NOLA to MN we stopped at a Buc-ees We checked to see if we could stay the night in the lot, as we have seen more than one UA-camr channel do it. We were told that there is no overnight parking, ever. Claimed that if it were allowed, their lot would be full. Others would not be able to park and shop if this occurred. I wish they told me this before I purchased the extra stuff... okay, my bad..... I ate all the extra stuff with a big smile...beef jerky and treats.... and I loved it.
This video is hilarious! 😂😂 I really enjoyed watching it! 👏👏 It was a bummer that y'all couldn't overnight at Buc-ee's, but I'm glad y'all found a safe place to overnight at Cracker Barrel. Hope all has been well with both of you and the cats. Please continue to be and stay safe out there. GOD bless!
As a trucker, I finally was able to walk across the bridge to a Buc-ee's for the first time a few days ago in Croosville, TN. It's really just a glorified truck stop that doesn't allow trucks. They have a big country store, but other than that, i didn't think it was all that special. What ticked me off, however, was the fact they didn't have ANY place to sit down and eat, not even outside! If I had just driven 5 hours in my car, the last thing I'd want to do is to eat and try to relax in it. They truly want you to fuel, buy snacks and other things, then LEAVE. But to also not allow any RVs to park there overnight is even more ridiculous. They really need to rethink their vision of what a travel center is. Their vision is completely off. I won't be back.
Yeah, that is pretty much what they are. A huge "country store" and a big food court with no seating. You can't pay for anything until you are headed out the door - so they don't have a dining area. They also charge to refill water bottles at the soda tap too. (when I am on my motorcycle) Water and Ice refills are often more expensive than buying a cup of soda. Some of their food is pretty decent and portions are large. But their barbeque is pretty inconsistent. Just stick with the kiosk ordered "fresh from sysco" foods if you eat there.
@@RedNekLvr22 large portions at a decent price, fresh bbq sandwiches and snacks and every drink you ever heard of. Plus their own line of high carb snacks. If you think about it you don't usually eat inside the gas station of a travel center. I still stop sometimes - but I never got on the "hype train." The BBQ sandwiches are fairly expensive, while the kiosk burritos and snacks are huge and reasonable.
Yea im with you they are not getting my money i remember when they were just starting and I couldn't even get in to buy fuel and there are lots of fantastic places to get brisket
The appeal is a huge amount of gas pumps, NO semis, clean bathrooms and the largest selection of any kind of food item you could want for a road trip. And there is a really nice area to walk my dogs. I always stop at Buc-ees.
I have heard that that place is not really good. I have also been told that cracker barrel is absolutely awesome. My sincere wishes for you both is to have safe travels 😊
Great visit. Glad you were able to get some rest. Tanya doing that cute walk back and forth in front of all the snacks just made me laugh. Buc-ee's looks like so much fun and very easy to spend money. I'd go broke there. Doesn't surprise me that they don't allow overnight parking. They don't welcome semi-trucks on their property or allow truckers to shop in their store if they show up in a semi, even if it is just the cab portion. Makes me wonder how they get their merch.🤔 Cracker Barrel allows overnight, just talk to the manager so they know about you. Perfect for breakfast the next morn. My fav is Grandma's Sampler Pancake Breakfast.🤤
Speaking as someone that's in Texas and lives near a Buc-ees personally I think it's kinda nice. I'm sure anyone that's gone on long road trips can attest to that emergency stop to stretch their legs late at night at a truck stop/gas station. I know there's nice ones as well but a lotta them specially in the middle of no where are shady as heck. So places like Buc'ees are nice since you know what you're getting and they are very good about their locations being super clean, something a lotta truck stops.. lack. Buc-ees is made as a tourist stop (seriously some people do trips just to go to one) they've also been more than kick ass to locals (and truckers) during hurricane relief efforts. There's also usually a Circle J or Loves often not super far from most Buc'ees so most truckers can walk over if they want at least.
It’s a southern tradition for road travelers. Good cheap gas, a TON of pumps so if you need to gas and go… done. And so much stuff to tempt you… holy hell! ❤❤❤
We visited last year, right after it opened. Trying to get out of the lot was a disaster, it was not a great flow. We still enjoyed the visit, as it was our first time ever at a Buc-ees.
@@joebep we had so much fun at the Florence Buc-ee’s. We agree , the flow in and out of there was horrendous , and it was June 2022 after they had just opened. Going up this June as well, hopefully they’ve calmed down a bit!!

Hi Tanya and Dave, some of my favorite snacks, sorry you didn't get to stay at Buc-ee's ,could see in Tanya's you were tired, glad you were able to stay at cracker barrel thanks for sharing stay safe
I just love you guys, you too are just so sweet! Went to bucees last month for the first time, same store. I wasnt impressed at all. I doubt I will be back To expensive! Cost too much! Its too commercialized. Give me a real truckstop instead, or Cracker Barrel. It is what it is. But you two are worth watching. Love you guys.
I am a big Buc-ee's fan, and as a retired truck driver, I kind of resent their ban on trucks. On the flip side of that, I've seen my share of truck stops, and what truck drivers leave behind. I can't blame them for banning trucks.
As a truck driver I don't blame them one bit. Most truck stops have trash cans every 10 ft but I still see piss bottles, poo bags left on the ground and trash thrown in the lot.
There is a Bucees in Terrell, TX. The layout is different I actually like it better. I was there yesterday. BTW in the Terrell Outlet stores there's a Crocs store.
OMG that banana pudding and coconut pie in the cups are awesome and don’t even get me started on the jerky. I might need some kind of rehab program for the jerky!! Safe travels
My roommate heard about Buck-ees from friends, so we *had* to check it out when we travelled cross country. Definitely have the **CLEANEST BATHROOMS EVER**, probably because they actually pay their employees to care. Food was good, too. Dog run area was as clean as the human bathrooms. Our Buck-ees gear has definitely held up to use.... Was disappointed that they didn't allow overnighters, but an employee at the new TN location said that actually varies by state legal codes.
Did y'all try the Buc-ee's Overbite? It's 1/4 lb of chocolate with a peanutbutter center. I love the dark chocolate ones! They are addicting and so stinkin delicious!
I’m from Texas and have fairly close access to several Buccees. I didn’t know about the no overnight, but I’m surprised they have set up,their own RV Parking lot. Maybe some day. I get it could be a hassle but for a small charge they could maintain it and sell lots of food and supplies.
Yes Bucky’s does Not let RV’s spend the night. They say so. They provide fuel and they are a market! A restaurant. Definitely it’s No Love’s Truck 🛻 Stop!
I am a former truck driver so I know what I'm about to write is true. Drive thru the diesel fueling area at any truck stop. Look at the bottles and bags of trash left on and around the pumps. The bottles have urine in them and the bags may have feces in them. Truck drivers are too lazy to put them in the trash cans at the pumps. Ride and walk through the truck parking area. You will notice the smell of urine because a lot of truckers are too lazy to walk to the rest rooms. The trash you see all over the lot is from lazy truck drivers. Many of the bags contain feces. Would you want to camp there overnite? If Buc-ee's allowed overnight truck parking their parking lots would look just like truck stop lots. That would hurt Buc-ee's business. That's why overnite parking at Cracker Barrel is for RVs only.
You were only 10 minutes away from me from cracker barrel I didn't even know you were in the area My driveway is always available if you ever come through again.
Great video!! My babies loved their treats you got them. They were so cute looking at the package and waiting patiently for you to give them some. Kinda surprised you couldn't stay at Bucees after the haul you took out of there. Oh well their loss cuz Cracker Barrel has a better breakfast. Can't wait to see where you're heading!! Safe travels ❤
It's their policy, when you drive into any buc'ees there's signs every where no trucks/overnight. They are okay with RV's parking just not overnighting. That's part of what makes Buc'ees so attractive to people down here. Lotta truck stops middle of the night just feel creepy/dingy with some of what you see, since they dont let people stay past their shopping/using facilities it gives them the ability to keep their places pretty immaculate. Only down side of Buc'ees is most of them are so crowded with people stopping cause it's Buc'ees that if you deal with any kind of anxiety you have to keep talking yourself down from a panic attack. lol
I got kicked out of Buccees. I was driving across TX, it was late, I spent a bunch of bucks at Buccees, then so exhausted thought I'd stay a few hours and take a nap to be safe before heading bake on the road. I was sound asleep 30 minutes later, it was about midnight and a man started banging on my van yelling "you can't sleep here", "you've gotta go now!" Scared the crap out of me!!! I drove away and then discovered a dent in my van where he was banging. Ticked me off and haven't been back.
Well, you two stayed right next to I-35 and university next to Fairfield Inn and the Best Western. The buc-ee's is just down the road from where the Cracker barrel restaurant is. My daughter lives in Denton, and the first time I came to visit she took me to Buc-ee's and man what a place it is. Love the beef jerky and the food,as well as the sweets they were out of this world. Have a safe trip. If you ever get to Las Vegas look me up at the NY NY hotel & casino and my name is Eric ,I'm a slot tech there. Great youtube video.
In Denton, on I-35E southbound, the Buccees is on the southern end of town. There is a Love’s on the north end of I-35E south. Across the hwy, I-35E northbound, there is a Travel America (TA). Cracker Barrel is also on I-35E northbound 2 exits south of TA.
🤗. I would spend hours in that store! Glad I no longer go shopping! I am officially retired! But, those sandwiches would probably be worth coming out of retirement! Loved this one! 👏
Well, at least, you can get some great food at Buc-ee's! Keep on searching for those great overnight places-I know that they're out there!! Take care, guys!!🤗🌎
I went to a Bucees once and I was blown away! I never knew how many things you could ever want or need or ever thought you needed could be at a truck stop!😂 Thanks guys for sharing your trip with us all! Stay safe and God Bless!😊
You both are nice relaxes mellow that Buckeys is ginormous seems like so much fun I want to visit there sometime thank you for inspiring travelers and (those that plan to )
I subscribed to your page and am happy to see you travel with your cats. I have two of them as well. I can't wait to watch your videos to see how you navigate traveling with them. Stay safe and be well.
@ 1:40 Buc’ee’s does have those windshield bug squeegee washer things, they’re just located separately somewhere away from the gas pumps. You have to look around and find them… maybe normally located next to the carwash area… you’ll see them because there are literally thousands of them in its own windshield washing station area. 😂🤣😂😂 It’s pretty impressive as well because Buc’ee’s keeps those windshield washers very well maintained always with clean fresh windshield washing solution in their squeegee dunk buckets. Unlike other gas stations where their squeegee dunk buckets are usually filled with disgusting dirty stinky nasty bug guts infested water! Haha!!!
The two of you are hilarious. It’s good to know up front if your allowed to park overnight. Plan ahead to save you from the late night knock. Safe travels ❤
LOL..been in the smaller ones in 80's a couple of times..this is going to be a tr-claimed better early and holding senior back to childhood joy MAJOR change to a Boxstore extravaganza....thank YOU...but sad about no RV pkg for you all.
yep, we are from tx and huge bucees fans. boondocking has never been allowed at bucees. its frustrating but, totally understandable. i would probably live in the parking lot if allowed, lol. btw, sure enjoyed meeting you on the cruise and look forward to future videos!
F ound you by chance and so glad I did! Great video ! We traveled from Michigan to Florida this spring and saw signs for Buc-ees in GA but weren't sure what they we like to stop at places that are welcoming to RV-ers (lets us boondock with permission for a few hrs or overnight). If I'm going to spend $100+ for gas and goodies i would like to be sleep for a few hrs if necessary. We usually go to LOVES, Pilot, Cracker barrell. I have yet to see their lots overrun with RV's. So I guess a stop at Buc-ees won't be on my itinerary for the next road trip. I'll continue to support businesses that support us. Thanks for the fun video and the information. Hope to see you down the road!
After watching this video, I am now starving. Love Buc-ee's but not happy you could not stay there. Can't wait to see where we are going next. Thanks for inviting me. Give B&B a pet for me.
Wow! Buc-ees one stop awesome shop! Can’t wait to try it out! Our son is a UW Badger. Our daughter a UMN Gopher. Love the Beaver reference! Thank you for your channel!
We LOVE Buckees. We always go to the one in Waller, TX on the way to Houston. The brisket is awesome. And their Roasted pecans are sooo good. For the gluten free folks you can get just the brisket and what I do is grab some baked lays and eat it like dip. It is so darn good. Y'all make me wanna take a trip 😊 we love watching your adventures ❤
We were coming back to TN from Michigan looking for a place to boondock. I said the Buc-ee's in Richmond KY would do just fine. We gassed up the RV, used the bathroom, ate some brisket and nuts/fudge. As we were leaving the wife said she asked and we couldn't overnight. I was furious. AT HER! It's much easier to get forgiveness than permission.
@@teresaautreyexperience, their bathrooms down here are also neat and clean. If I have to go to Port Lavaca and need to go to the bathroom.; Buceee's is where I go.
I beet you hate how they rip off customers all the time & the fact their is zero way of contacting a buc-ee's customer service or individual stores is absurd.
At least you two have no electronic logs with hours of service. I am kind of surprised though because I thought over the road truck drivers were the only people kicked put of places because of poo bags and pee bottles on the ground. I always plan my routes on everything I do for the next day or night. I never park at any place other than a truck stop because I may get kicked out. With RVs though, I thought there were no rules.
Loved your shopping spree! Bucee is def on my list of places to stop. I already started making a list I am def going to find me the beaver pj's lol Great video yall!
Hey you two!! Great to see you. Enjoyed your video!! Watching you shop was a hoot. I would have a great time in Buckees. Tanya, you have so much energy but I have to say that you looked a little whipped! Lol!! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!! Be safe until next time. You are two of my favorite people.!!! ❤😊
A Buccee's recently opened close to us (Tennessee). We waited 6 months after the opening, thought "OK, the crowds should be thinned out" and went up there. CROWDED 😵💫 I'm not impressed. The gift shop looks like it was stocked by Hobby Lobby and the food prices were insane. They are an entertaining, one- time stop, but we'll not go back nor will we stop in our RV. I'd rather scope out local places for unique food. BTW, just found your channel and intend to binge. 👁🗨

The last time I tried to overnight at a Love’s, I was told it was $34.99 just to park, no hookups.
@@Erin-Thor I’ve never paid a dime to park at Loves! I never knew they charged
Yeah. As a Trucker, never been to Buckees and never intend to ever spend a penny with them. Never EVER!
I got the knock at 3 am in my car in Madisonville,

Yea im with you they are not getting my money i remember when they were just starting and I couldn't even get in to buy fuel and there are lots of fantastic places to get brisket
The appeal is a huge amount of gas pumps, NO semis, clean bathrooms and the largest selection of any kind of food item you could want for a road trip. And there is a really nice area to walk my dogs. I always stop at Buc-ees.
I have heard that that place is not really good. I have also been told that cracker barrel is absolutely awesome. My sincere wishes for you both is to have safe travels 😊
Great visit. Glad you were able to get some rest. Tanya doing that cute walk back and forth in front of all the snacks just made me laugh.
Buc-ee's looks like so much fun and very easy to spend money. I'd go broke there.
Doesn't surprise me that they don't allow overnight parking. They don't welcome semi-trucks on their property or allow truckers to shop in their store if they show up in a semi, even if it is just the cab portion. Makes me wonder how they get their merch.🤔
Cracker Barrel allows overnight, just talk to the manager so they know about you. Perfect for breakfast the next morn. My fav is Grandma's Sampler Pancake Breakfast.🤤
Speaking as someone that's in Texas and lives near a Buc-ees personally I think it's kinda nice. I'm sure anyone that's gone on long road trips can attest to that emergency stop to stretch their legs late at night at a truck stop/gas station. I know there's nice ones as well but a lotta them specially in the middle of no where are shady as heck. So places like Buc'ees are nice since you know what you're getting and they are very good about their locations being super clean, something a lotta truck stops.. lack. Buc-ees is made as a tourist stop (seriously some people do trips just to go to one) they've also been more than kick ass to locals (and truckers) during hurricane relief efforts. There's also usually a Circle J or Loves often not super far from most Buc'ees so most truckers can walk over if they want at least.
I'm shocked that Buc-ees didn't allow you to stay in the parking lot over night. You spent a ton of money in there too!!
I’ve never heard of Buc-ees, but I have a feeling I would easily spend a ton of money in there ❤
me too 😂
It’s a southern tradition for road travelers. Good cheap gas, a TON of pumps so if you need to gas and go… done. And so much stuff to tempt you… holy hell! ❤❤❤
@@Erin-Thor LOL! Okay I think I need to go there 😁
Buc-ees is like a little city...well a gigantic trip stop! Love it!
$100 a week easy. Including gas. It’s an addiction.
This video was a lot of fun I really enjoyed it thanks for sharing guys love and hugs❤❤❤
So glad you enjoyed JT! ❤😂
Now I've got my husband on board watching you! I just love your videos - they tell it like it is, the good and the bad!
I've never been to Buc-ee's before but I think they finally built one here in South Carolina near Florence. I definitely need to visit.
We visited last year, right after it opened. Trying to get out of the lot was a disaster, it was not a great flow. We still enjoyed the visit, as it was our first time ever at a Buc-ees.
Good to hear! Never been myself but I'm heading that way next week. Junk food refueling!
Yes, there's one in Florence. I stopped there on my way back from FL, heading North. I had fun there. The briskets sandwich was good.
@@joebep we had so much fun at the Florence Buc-ee’s. We agree , the flow in and out of there was horrendous , and it was June 2022 after they had just opened. Going up this June as well, hopefully they’ve calmed down a bit!!

Hi Tanya and Dave, some of my favorite snacks, sorry you didn't get to stay at Buc-ee's ,could see in Tanya's you were tired, glad you were able to stay at cracker barrel thanks for sharing stay safe
I just love you guys, you too are just so sweet!
Went to bucees last month for the first time, same store. I wasnt impressed at all. I doubt I will be back
To expensive!
Cost too much!
Its too commercialized.
Give me a real truckstop instead, or Cracker Barrel.
It is what it is.
But you two are worth watching.
Love you guys.
I am a big Buc-ee's fan, and as a retired truck driver, I kind of resent their ban on trucks. On the flip side of that, I've seen my share of truck stops, and what truck drivers leave behind. I can't blame them for banning trucks.
I always thought it was because of the truck filling up there tanks and the store is already crazy busy
Those that abuse an area and trash it ruin it for those that respect places!
As a truck driver I don't blame them one bit. Most truck stops have trash cans every 10 ft but I still see piss bottles, poo bags left on the ground and trash thrown in the lot.
You two have fun. Rest areas are the best.
I am not surprised they said no boondocking. I got a note on my window when I stayed overnight at a buckees. Funny I slept through the knock!
Absolutely adore that you guys take the kitties with you... So cute.
I am happy to know you guys were in my neck of the woods. I live in the Dallas/Ft Worth area. Love the video, love you guys. Be safe out there! ❤❤
I want to travel with this couple!!! They look like so much fun
Thanks so much, we try to have fun!!
Just found you two and loved this vid. Y'all are a hoot. Can't wait to watch the rest of your vids.
There is a Bucees in Terrell, TX. The layout is different I actually like it better. I was there yesterday. BTW in the Terrell Outlet stores there's a Crocs store.
Thanks Jess for the tips! We appreciate it. We will have to check out the Buc-ee’s in Terrell when we are there & and also those Crocs!!
OMG that banana pudding and coconut pie in the cups are awesome and don’t even get me started on the jerky. I might need some kind of rehab program for the jerky!! Safe travels
My roommate heard about Buck-ees from friends, so we *had* to check it out when we travelled cross country.
Definitely have the **CLEANEST BATHROOMS EVER**, probably because they actually pay their employees to care.
Food was good, too.
Dog run area was as clean as the human bathrooms.
Our Buck-ees gear has definitely held up to use....
Was disappointed that they didn't allow overnighters, but an employee at the new TN location said that actually varies by state legal codes.
Texas yea!! Love watching you two. Really fun and cool couple. The most Handsome and cute couple out there. Keep on trucking yall!!
Did y'all try the Buc-ee's Overbite? It's 1/4 lb of chocolate with a peanutbutter center. I love the dark chocolate ones! They are addicting and so stinkin delicious!
I wish I’d known you guys were coming. I’m literally 10 minutes from there. I would’ve loved to have met you guys. Maybe on the next round. 😊
Hey guys you crack me up. Your videos are alway entertaining. Hugs to you both and kitties 😊❤
I’m from Texas and have fairly close access to several Buccees. I didn’t know about the no overnight, but I’m surprised they have set up,their own RV Parking lot. Maybe some day. I get it could be a hassle but for a small charge they could maintain it and sell lots of food and supplies.
Yes Bucky’s does Not let RV’s spend the night. They say so. They provide fuel and they are a market! A restaurant. Definitely it’s
No Love’s Truck 🛻 Stop!
I am a former truck driver so I know what I'm about to write is true. Drive thru the diesel fueling area at any truck stop. Look at the bottles and bags of trash left on and around the pumps. The bottles have urine in them and the bags may have feces in them. Truck drivers are too lazy to put them in the trash cans at the pumps. Ride and walk through the truck parking area. You will notice the smell of urine because a lot of truckers are too lazy to walk to the rest rooms. The trash you see all over the lot is from lazy truck drivers. Many of the bags contain feces. Would you want to camp there overnite? If Buc-ee's allowed overnight truck parking their parking lots would look just like truck stop lots. That would hurt Buc-ee's business. That's why overnite parking at Cracker Barrel is for RVs only.
Wow. I had no idea.
Have fun at Buc-ee's! Yum yum!
You were only 10 minutes away from me from cracker barrel I didn't even know you were in the area My driveway is always available if you ever come through again.
Great video!! My babies loved their treats you got them. They were so cute looking at the package and waiting patiently for you to give them some. Kinda surprised you couldn't stay at Bucees after the haul you took out of there. Oh well their loss cuz Cracker Barrel has a better breakfast. Can't wait to see where you're heading!! Safe travels ❤
It's their policy, when you drive into any buc'ees there's signs every where no trucks/overnight. They are okay with RV's parking just not overnighting. That's part of what makes Buc'ees so attractive to people down here. Lotta truck stops middle of the night just feel creepy/dingy with some of what you see, since they dont let people stay past their shopping/using facilities it gives them the ability to keep their places pretty immaculate. Only down side of Buc'ees is most of them are so crowded with people stopping cause it's Buc'ees that if you deal with any kind of anxiety you have to keep talking yourself down from a panic attack. lol
I got kicked out of Buccees. I was driving across TX, it was late, I spent a bunch of bucks at Buccees, then so exhausted thought I'd stay a few hours and take a nap to be safe before heading bake on the road. I was sound asleep 30 minutes later, it was about midnight and a man started banging on my van yelling "you can't sleep here", "you've gotta go now!" Scared the crap out of me!!! I drove away and then discovered a dent in my van where he was banging. Ticked me off and haven't been back.
Well, you two stayed right next to I-35 and university next to Fairfield Inn and the Best Western. The buc-ee's is just down the road from where the Cracker barrel restaurant is. My daughter lives in Denton, and the first time I came to visit she took me to Buc-ee's and man what a place it is. Love the beef jerky and the food,as well as the sweets they were out of this world. Have a safe trip. If you ever get to Las Vegas look me up at the NY NY hotel & casino and my name is Eric ,I'm a slot tech there. Great youtube video.
In Denton, on I-35E southbound, the Buccees is on the southern end of town. There is a Love’s on the north end of I-35E south.
Across the hwy, I-35E northbound, there is a Travel America (TA). Cracker Barrel is also on I-35E northbound 2 exits south of TA.
🤗. I would spend hours in that store! Glad I no longer go shopping! I am officially retired! But, those sandwiches would probably be worth coming out of retirement! Loved this one! 👏
Well, at least, you can get some great food at Buc-ee's! Keep on searching for those great overnight places-I know that they're out there!! Take care, guys!!🤗🌎
And to think we got to see that Hawaiian shirt in person. Nothing better than the Buc ee's brisket sandwich.
Fun trip to Buc-ee's!! We love CB-docking. Best breakfast for getting back on the road in the morning.
Thanks Carol, we love Buc-ee’s and also staying overnight at Cracker Barrel - best breakfast!!
I'm glad you guys asked and glad you found somewhere else to stay
I went to a Bucees once and I was blown away! I never knew how many things you could ever want or need or ever thought you needed could be at a truck stop!😂 Thanks guys for sharing your trip with us all! Stay safe and God Bless!😊
Great Cracker Barrel was so accommodating! Can't believe that Buc cees doesn't! Liked this video
You both are nice relaxes mellow that Buckeys is ginormous seems like so much fun I want to visit there sometime thank you for inspiring travelers and (those that plan to )
I subscribed to your page and am happy to see you travel with your cats. I have two of them as well. I can't wait to watch your videos to see how you navigate traveling with them. Stay safe and be well.
I love all of your adventures. Thank you for sharing the good, the bad andthe...woopsie's. Much love from NZ
Aye. LTIUW literally turned Buc-ee into a whole movie set, extras included. Love it. Can’t wait to see where you guys end up in the next video.
@ 1:40 Buc’ee’s does have those windshield bug squeegee washer things, they’re just located separately somewhere away from the gas pumps. You have to look around and find them… maybe normally located next to the carwash area… you’ll see them because there are literally thousands of them in its own windshield washing station area.
😂🤣😂😂
It’s pretty impressive as well because Buc’ee’s keeps those windshield washers very well maintained always with clean fresh windshield washing solution in their squeegee dunk buckets. Unlike other gas stations where their squeegee dunk buckets are usually filled with disgusting dirty stinky nasty bug guts infested water! Haha!!!
The two of you are hilarious. It’s good to know up front if your allowed to park overnight. Plan ahead to save you from the late night knock.
Safe travels ❤
I just realized why I am eating every time I am watching you guys. Love ya!
I’m in sugar shock from just WATCHING this! 🤣🥰
This just made my day, will send to my daughter, she needs a smile 😍!💝💯♾️
I live int he Chicago area, and I had never heard of Buc-ees until this video. Thanks for the introduction.
LOL..been in the smaller ones in 80's a couple of times..this is going to be a tr-claimed better early and holding senior back to childhood joy MAJOR change to a Boxstore extravaganza....thank YOU...but sad about no RV pkg for you all.
yep, we are from tx and huge bucees fans. boondocking has never been allowed at bucees. its frustrating but, totally understandable. i would probably live in the parking lot if allowed, lol. btw, sure enjoyed meeting you on the cruise and look forward to future videos!
Beaver nuggets are my fav! Lived in Houston for 10 years! Always get two bag! Jalapeño jam is good over cream cheese with crackers!
4 hour time limit at Buc ee's. That is a good policy in my opinion. We have been to several. All a fantastic experience.
F ound you by chance and so glad I did! Great video ! We traveled from Michigan to Florida this spring and saw signs for Buc-ees in GA but weren't sure what they we like to stop at places that are welcoming to RV-ers (lets us boondock with permission for a few hrs or overnight). If I'm going to spend $100+ for gas and goodies i would like to be sleep for a few hrs if necessary. We usually go to LOVES, Pilot, Cracker barrell. I have yet to see their lots overrun with RV's. So I guess a stop at Buc-ees won't be on my itinerary for the next road trip. I'll continue to support businesses that support us.
Thanks for the fun video and the information. Hope to see you down the road!
I know I am late watching these I just found your channel but I really enjoy it.. I have learned a lot so I can be ready to start this summer
Thanks so much Bobby! That’s so exciting that you are starting this summer!! What kind of rig are you going to be living in?
School bus hoping to be ready to go
@@LetsTurnItUpWorld
After watching this video, I am now starving. Love Buc-ee's but not happy you could not stay there. Can't wait to see where we are going next. Thanks for inviting me. Give B&B a pet for me.
Wow! Buc-ees one stop awesome shop! Can’t wait to try it out! Our son is a UW Badger. Our daughter a UMN Gopher. Love the Beaver reference! Thank you for your channel!
We LOVE Buckees. We always go to the one in Waller, TX on the way to Houston. The brisket is awesome. And their Roasted pecans are sooo good. For the gluten free folks you can get just the brisket and what I do is grab some baked lays and eat it like dip. It is so darn good. Y'all make me wanna take a trip 😊 we love watching your adventures ❤
My first video watching and after 5 minutes I subscribed, you guys crack me up! Looking forward to more videos.
We were coming back to TN from Michigan looking for a place to boondock. I said the Buc-ee's in Richmond KY would do just fine. We gassed up the RV, used the bathroom, ate some brisket and nuts/fudge. As we were leaving the wife said she asked and we couldn't overnight. I was furious. AT HER! It's much easier to get forgiveness than permission.
I was at Bucees in Terrell and I saw at least two RV type vehicles there over night. I took a nap there in a SUV.
When in Buc-ees the key of survival is discipline on purchases. Cin-Cin and Salute. Have a blessed trip.
Buc-ee’s employee: “I haven’t tried any of this stuff”. Somebody in Texas who actually avoids junk food?! Will wonders never cease?!😂
been living in Dallas for over 24 yrs and went to Buc-ee's for the first time during Covid. They do have clean bathrooms lol
Hey, here inTexas we are all about Bar-B-Q and Jerry. Lol
@@teresaautreyexperience, their bathrooms down here are also neat and clean. If I have to go to Port Lavaca and need to go to the bathroom.; Buceee's is where I go.
That employee was quickly taken to a Bucees reeducation camp. Believe the beaver- or get out.
I beet you hate how they rip off customers all the time & the fact their is zero way of contacting a buc-ee's customer service or individual stores is absurd.
I just recently visited Buccee’s on last Saturday and I now understand THE HYPE!!! Woooow that brisket sandwich is EVERYTHING!!!! 🔥
I see RV's parked overnight all the time, at the BUC-EE'S in GA (exit 144 off 75).
I love Buc-eye’s and Cracker Barrel ❤❤. You two are so fun, love your videos!!
There are lots of places to get gas and food that will let you park overnight. I'd take my business to them.
Safe Travels Always God bless. Mucho Love From Your Friend In Michigan Tam 💜💜
Love you guys! There is a Buc ee’s that supposedly will be opening two hours from me in Wisconsin, can’t wait…
Close to me to. I’ll be there
Where in Wisconsin? I'm near Oshkosh.

At least you two have no electronic logs with hours of service. I am kind of surprised though because I thought over the road truck drivers were the only people kicked put of places because of poo bags and pee bottles on the ground. I always plan my routes on everything I do for the next day or night. I never park at any place other than a truck stop because I may get kicked out. With RVs though, I thought there were no rules.
Wow, wish our Bucees here in South Texas had this kind of selection. I think we have the scaled down store set-up. But we do havw brisket tacos.
Absolutely love your video’s so entertaining and informative. Thanks for sharing all your knowledge
Thanks so much Tammy, we really appreciate it!
Loved your shopping spree! Bucee is def on my list of places to stop. I already started making a list I am def going to find me the beaver pj's lol Great video yall!
Tortilla wrapped sausage on a stick is my absolute favorite! Have to get there early just after breakfast.
Hey you two!! Great to see you. Enjoyed your video!! Watching you shop was a hoot. I would have a great time in Buckees. Tanya, you have so much energy but I have to say that you looked a little whipped! Lol!! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!!! Be safe until next time. You are two of my favorite people.!!! ❤😊
I remember seeing some other RV You Tubers that said you couldn't stay overnight at Buc-ee's. Oh well, now you know. Now I know too! LOL
Buc-ee’s looks so interesting !! So much stuff ! I’ve never heard of it before. Thanks for a fun video! I wish I had some Buc-ee treats right now !
Are you guys still planning a RV trip to western Canada ?
A Buccee's recently opened close to us (Tennessee). We waited 6 months after the opening, thought "OK, the crowds should be thinned out" and went up there. CROWDED 😵💫
I'm not impressed. The gift shop looks like it was stocked by Hobby Lobby and the food prices were insane. They are an entertaining, one- time stop, but we'll not go back nor will we stop in our RV. I'd rather scope out local places for unique food.
BTW, just found your channel and intend to binge. 👁🗨
