CEFCO Travel Center #48 (Temple, Texas)

From Google Maps Street View with some extra saturation.
This truck stop appears to date back to 2000 as "Southwest Travel Centers" with a Wendy's, with CEFCO taking over around 2001 as store #48, with the address of 12310 NW H.K. Dodgen Loop. It was a Shell (though likely a Texaco prior to 2003) and converted to the CEFCO brand between September 2019 and spring 2021. Most other CEFCO stores had converted back around 2016.

I had previously written about this on Carbon-izer, though there needs to have some updates made. The Wendy's was still there as of March 2025 but I'm afraid I didn't check it in December 2025 when I was there at that intersection, but as of March 2026 it is reported closed, presumably because Casey's wants to convert CEFCO to their own thing.
