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.

Didn't really look like they made many changes to the truck accessories area. The big rig on the turn table has always been a cool feature. Not a trucker so not sure how it rates from that perspective but from a passenger car perspective the variety of food options, the coffee bar area and the convenience portion is nice. Biggest issue is getting in and out of the parking area. Truckers and passenger cars all merging at the same light makes it crazy getting in and out.

In the South part of Joplin, not far from the highway, you will find a slightly more expensive Philips 66 with not that many pumps, and it's not my favourite. I only came here because I was getting a burger next door and I noticed that gas was much cheaper at the other Philips 66 a few miles away in Carthage - so I held out for that one. Thanks GasBuddy. Or GasGuru I think. I have gotten gas here once before and again it was slightly more than average that that's why I don't usually fill up here.

Instead, I was stuck there for an outrageous hour and 17 minutes for something that should have taken 20 minutes max. And that's being generous. I've changed these bulbs myself before. It's a 5-7 minute job with two bolts to remove. The inspection itself? 10-15 minutes, tops. Then came the real slap in the face: $76!! $12 for the inspection. $64 for labor. - TO INSTALL BULBS I PROVIDED. At no point did anyone bother to tell me how long this would take, or what it would cost. And when I rightfully called them out on it, the employee had the nerve to be dismissive and condescending. Instead of addressing my concerns, he sarcastically asked, "Well, why didn't you do it yourself?" To which I replied, "Because I can't do an inspection myself, and I thought it would be easier to do them at the same time." For comparison, I called another local shop after the fact. They quoted me $10-$15 for the same job, plus the $12 inspection. And guess what? They would have had it done in a fraction of the time. Let me be crystal clear: AutoHaus ripped me off! They wasted my time, overcharged me, and treated me like my concerns didn't matter. If you value your money and your patience, take your business elsewhere.

After a basic wash through the tunnel, I spent over an hour at the self-service area with their vacuums and towels and especially the trash cans. I *filled* the trash can with soda bottles, food wrappers, straw wrappers and receipts and so much more trash. After all that garbage was disposed of, it was great to spend an unlimited time cleaning up crumbs and dirt, wiping away the road muck from door jambs and such. I ran the floor mats through the floor mat machine as well, which took a bit of effort because someone had lost one in there causing the machine to be jammed up. Everything worked well, the vacuums really suck and the towels are great for getting the stuff the big machine misses. Great stuff! [Review 447 of 2026 - 514 in Missouri - 25630 overall]
