We are on the Road and stopped at a Jays in Virginia at 5.00 pm and a service truck backed in and blocked the rv pumps .Went in to pay and asked to speak to the manger and she asked them to move so we could get out . They where pissed off at us when we did nothing wrong .It seems things have gone down hill in the last few years. Is it just me or do others see the same thing since Pilot took over. If this was late at night or early in the morning it would not be so bad but to block your lanes in prime time does not make sence .

That's sort of like cutting grass or cleaning bathrooms at the campground - there's never a good time, somebody will always be inconvenienced. Having said that, I also preferred the 'old' Flying J and the local buffet instead of the new Pilot and Denny's. Seems like the diesel was cheaper than nearby stations then also.

Sounded like it was a Flying J's service vehicle, unless I was reading it wrong.

I don't know what kind of service vehicle Flying J has or why it would block the RV lanes. Sounded to me like it was an independent service vehicle so I doubt FJ had any control over it....I've always had excellent service and accommodations at their service centers....but then again, maybe my expectations are lower than others.....Dennis
