After reviewing thousands of deserving entries, Pilot, the nation’s largest travel center operator and third largest tanker fleet operator in the U.S., announced today their 2025 Road Warrior champion, Stacy Batiste of Lafayette, Louisiana. Batiste was selected for his tireless dedication and commitment to professional driving, receiving the largest prize in contest history – a custom Kenworth truck built by the Diesel Brothers and a $50,000 cash prize. Pilot’s Road Warrior contest is a way for the company to say thanks to the drivers who go the extra mile and keep North America moving. A bonus second-place winner, Bobby Peeker of Woodruff, South Carolina, is also being awarded a $10,000 cash prize and a $25,000 donation on his behalf to a charity supporting veterans’ causes of his choice.  

“We received thousands of entries celebrating the efforts of drivers who go the extra mile each and every day. Stacy’s and Bobby’s hard work, dedication to the profession, commitment to safety and service stood out. We are honored to welcome them to the Road Warrior winner’s circle,” said Jordan Spradling, senior vice president of transportation and midstream assets at Pilot Company. “They both are prime examples of the positive impact professional drivers have on and off the road.”

Batiste has dedicated the past 33 years to being on the road, logging more than 5.1 million accident-free miles and considers trucking to be his calling. Batiste has been recognized throughout his career for his commitment to road safety. A Marine Corps veteran, Batiste is motivated by the pride of knowing his efforts keep communities and families supplied with the goods they need. In addition to his time behind the wheel, he routinely goes the extra mile to mentor younger drivers and serves as a pillar in his local community. 

On October 21, Pilot surprised Batiste with his prize while he was working and on the road. Batiste had stopped at a Flying J in Baytown, Texas, when Pilot and the Diesel Brothers handed over the keys to the custom Kenworth truck and presented the $50,000 check. His family hid in the travel center to be a part of the surprise. They say Batiste’s first job as a professional driver was hauling sugar cane in South Louisiana, and now, as an owner-operator, this truck will further his passion for safe driving and making a difference in his community. 

With the amount of heart-warming stories that were submitted through this year’s Road Warrior nomination process, Pilot selected an additional deserving winner. Bobby Peeker, also a Marine Corps veteran, will receive a $10,000 cash prize and a $25,000 donation made by Pilot on his behalf to a charity of his choice that supports veterans’ causes.  

Peeker boasts more than 1 million accident-free miles and supports the military community following his service in the Marine Corps, regularly volunteering his time and resources to aid his fellow servicemen and servicewomen. He also participates in truck shows that support the Special Olympics. His family instilled his passion for the profession, which was only strengthened by the role his grandfather played to help remove rubble from the 9/11 attacks with his truck. 

For over 10 years, Pilot has celebrated professional drivers and recognized them as Road Warriors for their dedication to going the extra mile.

As North America’s largest travel center network and the originator of National Road Trip Day, Pilot is revving up for the start of summer with limited-time offerings, the ultimate road trip giveaway and travel trends. Pilot teamed up with Campspot, the leading booking platform for campgrounds, RV parks and glamping resorts, to survey nearly 2,000 road trippers and reveal one of the biggest trends for this summer: the pop-up escape – a one to three night, flexible, budget-friendly getaway*.

“National Road Trip Day marks the official start of summer travel and is an invitation for drivers to pack up, fuel up and enjoy the freedom and excitement of the open road,” said Adrienne Ingoldt, chief marketing officer at Pilot. “This summer, many travelers are fully embracing pop-up escapes, transforming road trips into unforgettable journeys. Whether you’re seeking the beauty of wide-open spaces or just exploring a roadside hidden gem, Pilot is out here to fuel your journey with everything you need to make the most of your miles.”

Key findings from the 2025 Campspot x Pilot Summer Travel Survey:

• Short trips, big impact: 53% of travelers surveyed are planning more short trips or weekend getaways than in previous years, with more than 90% gearing up for pop-up escapes this summer—quick trips typically within driving distance of home.
• Experience over agenda: 66% of travelers say the best part of a road trip is discovering hidden gems, while 62% enjoy making memories with family or friends and 61% love soaking in the scenic views.
• Road trip priorities: 84% say they most value the convenience of fuel, food and restrooms in one stop. The perfect playlist (56%) and meaningful conversations (54%) also top the list of road trip essentials.
• Snack strategy: More than half (57%) of travelers crave a mix of everything, opting for the perfect portable treat of salty and sweet to elevate the journey.
• The (nearby) great escape: 58% of travelers are heading to lakes or beaches this summer, followed by mountains or national parks (51%) and charming small towns (48%), with 57% of travelers saying they’ll travel 200 miles or less to get to their destination.

“Travelers are rewriting the rules of summer getaways by choosing closer escapes, simpler plans and spontaneous moments that bring genuine connection,” said Jeff Bettin, general manager, Marketplace at Campspot. “Pop-up escapes show that it doesn’t take a faraway destination or a long itinerary to create something unforgettable. That’s why Campspot and Pilot are making it easier to discover the perfect place to stay, hit the road and experience the kind of escape that travelers need most this summer.”

For over 65 years, Pilot has been a trusted companion to millions of travelers across North America. Building on this legacy, the company’s first-ever chief marketing officer, Adrienne Ingoldt, is leading the charge to make Pilot an iconic brand and the travel center of choice for all who love the open road.

“It’s the people and the moments along the way that make being on the road so much more than just traveling from point A to B,” Ingoldt explains. “We’ve found that people who choose to drive – wherever their journey takes them – have a shared desire to embrace all the possibilities along the way. Pilot is out here to fuel them up, fill them up and lift them up.”

To develop this campaign, Pilot spoke to all types of drivers to better understand the community it serves. These conversations revealed an essential truth: out on the road, like in life, it’s about the journey and what you make of it, not just the destination. Drivers of all kinds answer the call of the road because it puts them in the driver’s seat of life, where they feel alive and free.

This campaign is the first to showcase Pilot’s refreshed brand identity which includes a fresh, bold style with a new, modern logo, a more vibrant color palette and a relatable, witty brand voice. With its updated brand aesthetic and welcoming call to, ‘See You Out Here,’ Pilot invites everyone to create miles of memories along the way. The new brand comes to life through broadcast television in five key markets across the U.S., nationwide billboards, social media, radio ads and more.

The hero of the campaign is a 30-second television commercial that turns up the volume on everybody’s favorite road trip anthem, Tom Cochrane's "Life is a Highway,” and features everyday people, all kinds of drivers moving to the rhythm of the road. The ad is currently airing on major networks and streaming on connected TV platforms. The new brand elements and motto of “See You Out Here” will continue across the company’s owned channels and in key moments throughout the year.

“Everyone who’s ever hand-surfed out the window or belted out an epic car power ballad knows the middle of nowhere can be the greatest somewhere,” added Ingoldt. “Our brand is how we show up for drivers – whether it’s in the middle of a rigorous multi-day haul or an epic road trip, we get them and have just what they need to keep that upbeat feeling rolling. See you out here!”

These locations are the latest in our New Horizons project, a $1+ billion store modernization initiative. Since launching the program in March 2022, we have remodeled over 150 Pilot, Flying J and One9 travel centers with the goal of creating the best experience possible for both our guests and team members.

1. Map out your road trip

When it comes to planning a trip, a little preliminary research goes a long way. Figuring out the best time to leave and typical traffic patterns are great ways to help you dodge heavy traffic, whether that means mapping out your journey on paper or plotting the route mentally. Use our app or Google to find ideal driving times and cities that might be worth a stop along the way. For example, if you’re headed up to DC for the weekend from Charlotte, NC, why not skip standstill 5 o’clock traffic by picnicking at Prince William Forest Park? Or why not snap a family picture at the World’s Tallest Thermometer in Baker, CA?

Planning a trip in advance gives you the ability to be creative and make memories even before you reach your destination.

How to plan a trip using our myRewards Plus^TM App

Road tripping just got a whole lot easier with our myRewards Plus^TM App, which has a search function to assist in planning a trip anywhere across the country. Here’s how you can plan a road trip through our app:

Download or log into the Pilot Flying J myRewards Plus^TM App

First, download or log into our app, which features all sorts of deals and discounts on gas and beverages. In fact, through October 31, app users can save 10 cents for every gas gallon at the pump.

Select “Find” at the bottom of the screen

Once you’re logged in to the app, you’ll see the “Find” button at the bottom left of your screen. Click that, which will take you to our North American map.

Type your destination in the search function

At the top of the screen, you’ll see a magnified glass icon with the prompt, “Where are you going today?” Type in your road trip destination, which will take you to the “plan your trip” function.

The “Plan Trip” button will prompt you to choose a starting point and destination. Fill out that information, then select the “Continue” button at the bottom of the screen for the map to route accordingly.

Route your trip

The map will show you your route, with any Pilot or Flying J locations that are along the way. You can find information on current gas prices, restaurants, and even the exit number for any travel center you might want to stop at.

Save your upcoming trip for when it’s time to hit the road

Once you’ve finalized your route and where you might want to stop along the way, click the “Save Trip” button at the top left of the screen. This confirmation should then pop up:

Voila! Your next road tripping adventure is all set.

2. Safety is key

Once you’ve planned your trip, it’s important to make sure your vehicle is in tip-top shape for the trek ahead. Have a maintenance check, making sure your oil, fluids, tires, and lights are all working properly. Is your spare still in the back? Are both jumper cables in the vehicle? Check for any emergency necessities should anything happen on your road trip, and make sure to have your AAA information or other roadside service on hand.

3. Make your road-tripping travels comfortable

When it comes to road tripping, comfort matters. Whether you’re driving with kids or headed out solo, a well-rested night of sleep and a quick pit stop for some amazing coffee goes a long way.

Our stores are ready to serve you however you might need, from staple road trip snacks to a quick load of laundry to free Wi-Fi that’ll help you download that random show your kid’s been asking for in the backseat.

Our team is working hard to make stopping with us an even better experience through our New Horizons initiative, a store modernization project that’ll help remodel more than 450 of our stores across North America.

4. Every stop counts

“Are we there yet?”

“…Are we close?”

“…How far are we?”

Road tripping with kids can be challenging. And let’s face it: bathroom breaks and pit stops for snacks and fuel are inevitable. So why not make every stop count? Kill two, three, or even four birds with one stone by stopping at a place that has it all. You can save both time and money through our myRewards Plus^TM app, which can help you find the quickest Pilot and Flying J travel center, offer discounts on your favorite snacks, and help you stock up on other travel necessities (think car chargers and sunglasses). And don’t forget about our 10-cent gas discount you can use any time you fill up with us through October 31!

Enjoy the open road

Getting there’s half the fun! Let the journey and unexpected pit stops at roadside attractions be a part of your road trip. These are some of the best memories you can make with your family. Headed anywhere exciting? Visit our Facebook page and share your next road trip destination with us!

To celebrate our latest New Horizons store completions, come check out the new look at this month’s remodeled locations and save 25% off food and beverages August 29 through October 2 by entering the promo code PFJDriver in the myRewards Plus^TM app. Oh, and did you hear about our new 10-cent discount?

Bakersfield, CA

Our travel center in Bakersfield underwent quite the overhaul, with a brand new Taco Bell, Cinnabon kiosk, kitchen and storage area, and laundry facilities. These refreshes will add a sweet touch (literally!) to the Flying J travel center, creating even more space and modernized facilities for our guests to find the things they love while stopping with us.

To celebrate the new look, we will be throwing a celebration at Bakersfield on Friday, August 12, from 10:00-2:00 PM at our Flying J Travel Center. The festivities will include a ribbon cutting, check presentation of $10,000 to the Kern High School District, gas card giveaways, swag, Monster Energy girls, and more! California travelers – mark your calendars because this will be an event you won’t want to miss!

Cartersville, GA

Check out our updated Pilot Travel Center in Cartersville, GA, which expanded its beverage selection and deli area with made-in-house pizza, wings, tenders, salads, sandwiches, and an array of hot and cold snacks to make sure we satisfy any food or drink craving. Don’t forget to grab your favorite sub sandwich on your way out at our newly remodeled Subway restaurant! And as part of our Giving Back initiative, Pilot Company is donating $10,000 check to Bartow County School System for its STEM programs.

The New Horizons project is all about creating an even better experience for both our guests and team members at the stores, providing additional opportunities for growth and efficiency. Cartersville is the perfect example of that:

“The addition of the enhanced deli/kitchen not only provides our guests with even more popularly requested food options, but it’s also allowed one of my best team members to take on a new leadership role and have ownership over that part of our business.” – Stefan, Pilot Travel Center’s General Manager in Cartersville.

We look forward to investing in even more of our stores as we continue to remodel over 400 travel centers across North America. Stay up to date on our projects and learn more about the New Horizons initiative by visiting pilotflyingj.com/new-horizons.

We kicked off the festivities with an official ribbon cutting and check presentation ceremony, followed by a day of freebies, photos and fun with Monster Energy and the local radio stations. The remodel and event are part of our larger initiative, New Horizons, to modernize more than 400 of our travel centers across the country.

Unique to this location in Corbin, KY is that it was the very first travel center in Pilot history, first opening its doors in 1981. This historic travel center now has a fully refreshed look and upgraded amenities, including a new proprietary food concept called Burrito Junction.

“We connect people and places,” said Jamie King, Senior Director of Food and Beverage for Pilot. “Burrito Junction is meant to be just that: a place for our guests to connect to delicious Tex-Mex food while on the road.”

Despite being open only a month and a half, its manager, David Smith, says this new quick-serve concept already has regulars.

“We have about as much traffic during our midnight shift as we do our day shift,” David said. “It’s something different. People like different.”

In addition to Burrito Junction, the travel center also has an upgraded deli with additional grab-and-go items like sandwiches and salads, an expanded beverage selection, and four new self-checkouts for a quicker shopping experience.

“Given the historical significance of this location and our long-time presence in the community, it is especially exciting to celebrate the renovation of this Pilot travel center with the people of Corbin and the travelers we serve every day,” said Allison Cornish, VP of Store Modernization at Pilot Company. “These improvements are made with both our team members and guests in mind, incorporating their feedback to introduce new food options and improve the overall store experience.”

As part of our Giving Back initiative, we donated $20,000 to the Corbin Independent School District, which will provide new equipment the district’s career center opening in August. The center focuses on construction trades, HVAC, and carpentry.

“We’re so excited to have Pilot as part of our community,” Suzie Razmus, Corbin’s mayor, said. “You’ve all been here a long time and have been a great asset to our community and to all the people that get off this interstate.”
