    That's promising for sure.
    I still don't really get how it helps anybody. I'm going from sw WA to Oakland CA. Mine says to fill in ne OR. Why not closer to CA?
    Filled the truck twenty three cents cheaper close to the state line. Gives me a chance of not fueling in CA...

    Where are you heading? Looks like over the Vail.

    I pick up tomorrow morning here at the WCC going to Moberly, MO. I know my DM doesn't like her fleet running over Vail regardless of the weather/season and she will always give the reroute. Just got to tell her if I am running through ABQ or SLC. So, I'm going to message her in the morning to get the reroute through ABQ.

    Still leaves me wondering about the T/A showing on their suggested fuel route though. I wonder if this a change we will hear about tomorrow.

    Guess I'm confused about the fuel solutions as the only time I see them is on this thread. Not once on my qc.

    If you want them I would talk to your Dm. I however would suggest against them as they are not beneficial to the driver it seems
     
    CannonballAA and MachoCyclone Thank this.

    Suppose to come at the time you get receive the load assignment. Comes to my QC, Transflo app, and text message. It's only a suggested fuel route and are not required to follow it. They started it because they have drivers that can't fuel plan.

    Probably would be pointless as we typically stay on the 10 and 75 running so-cal to central Florida (team), and basically hit same cheap fuel stops.

    Dodged my first tornado of the year in Texas. That bad boy was on my heels and I had to take I 27 North to Amarillo to escape it. I'm at the Hana station now watching it dissipate on radar.

    On another note Leprino Foods out of Roswell, NM loaded me up with 43k in poultry and I was able to get the tandems california legal. This load is headed to KY, but this is the first time I've been able to get a load this heavy to be legal at the 40 mark.
