Hess Express Gas Stations to be rebranded as Speedway

[StageFrenzy]

I can't believe we have three pages regarding "the convenience stores of Speedway".
We need some confirmed, interesting Disney news pronto.

We would be discussing this no matter what news Disney put out.

Not that I have some super connection to them, but for some reason, I always found that green comforting when leaving Disney at night after a long day at the parks. Oh well, see ya later Hess.

Yeah, but this is the same forum that produced page after page after page on new "Tangled" bathrooms.

Amusing they are becoming Speedways since Disney is closing the WDW Speedway.

I wish the good people of Speedway would put a Dunkin Donuts iced coffee machine in the store by the Boardwalk. The MK store has it but I don't get there often enough.

I love the Speedway rewards program. I use the points accumulated from my gas purchases to get gift cards (I'm always getting iTunes cards) and every 6 fountain drinks purchased, you get a free one. And their fountain drinks always taste right, I've been to numerous other stations where I will go in to get a drink and after taking 1 sip, I dump it out because they don't maintain the mixing settings on the dispenser. And no, I don't work for the speedway corporation.

The only reason I ever cared about these was for the gas, and (petty as it may seem), I always disfavored Hess because none of them had the little catch in the pumping handle that let you fill your tank without squeezing the trigger the whole time.

Use a paperclip.
Here in the UK ever single operator removes them apart from I think for truck pumps. But they only remove the bar that the clip latches onto - insert a straightened paperclip through the holes and you're sorted.

I love Speedway! Before I moved, I was a regular as was everyone in my family. 89 cent big pops in the summer.

Speedway is amazing. Their rewards program is fantastic. This is a good change.

It's a bit sad because we drive down and always associated Hess with WDW. We made it a point to fuel up at a WDW Hess on departure. Oh well, Speedways are nice.

The ONLY thing I want to know is...

Will Speedway have Coke products?

Will they sell lottery tickets?

 

[Communicore]

Does Speedway sell the cheap pizzas and wings?

 

[LAKid53]

I cannot believe there are four pages of comments about a gas station redo...

 

[Monorail_Red_77]

Well, it's not just any gas station redo. It is a WDW gas station redo. Plus this is a WDW fan site. So there's that also.

Does Speedway sell the cheap pizzas and wings?

They have full size pizza's for $5.99...Not sure about the wings...

Yea that is good. I see people purchase Hess pizzas and take them to MK.

 

[Monorail_Red_77]

Not sure if was posted already. Here are some pics of the Speedway gas station near MK / TTC parking. Also notice a sign in the parking lot that it is going under renovations again since the switch over.

Nice gas prices too!!

Yes still there, rebranded as Speedway.

Speedway as far as food goes has 5.99 pizzas (it's pretty decent stuff), grill items like hot dogs etc, nachos, hamburgers, and other sandwiches at least at the locations around here.
