VegasMan702 is HERE

Are you an I/C or a company driver. With Company you'll fuel according to your routing. Every preplan will start out asking you your fuel level. I always try to be full before I load so I can get an accurate scale weight afterward and then I fuel accordingly on my trip. The fuel routes are notoriously inaccurate, IMO and I end up fueling at alot of locations that Arent listed on my routing. I also try to fuel either during my Pretrip,postrip, or my 1/2 break.

 

ok, Gotcha. Then I'm not sure. There seemed to be a formula that the other guys used, something to do with payroll, but I'm really not sure

 

Fuel when you need it. Any fuel you biy before midnight monday comes out of settlement that friday.

 

I fuel when convenient, I have dual 120 gallon tanks and tend to take on fuel usually around every 1000 miles, I don't like to let it get low. I'll do 1200 now and then. Depending on where I am running I try to fuel at OCs. Its just easy and usually if I'm at an OC I'm there for my 10, so I can get the fueling done during my 15 minute pretrip and save little bits of my 70 here and there. Other than that I try to use the Pilot/FJ's because we get a little bit of a discount through them. But I fuel at Loves and Hess now and then too. Don't use T/A/Petro much.

 

I fuel when needed, but if I'm going home I make sure my takes are half fuel.
