Have you been to a Buc-Ees?

Hundreds of pumps. It's a goddamned ocean of concrete and steel. You can use the main building as a shelter for a mid-sized town and have enough bathrooms. It's a fucking department store serving as a gas station.

They're goddamned massive.

No, you just underestimate the size of a buc-ees.

Buc-ee's would have to be 220,000ft tall to be able to see it from 580 miles away.
Not accounting for refraction.
