I use RTS and can say last Q4 2020. Was less then 2.00 a gallon all gallons. Its not the best but its all about how you fuel. I've decided I'll pay 250 a quarter to pay less the 2 a gallon avg. Yes i pay more but all combined is less then 2 tax due is mostly due to PA. Its unavoidable for me and I'd rather spend money elsewhere and owe less then 1/2 tank in pa later per qt
Best fuel card

I just signed up with TCS. Very easy setup process and you can transfer money with Zelle. The discounts in my area for today are averaging $0.40 cents for multiple stations. Today, the best discount shows to be 47 cents at the Denver TA. I also like the simplicity of their search function to find nearby stations. The only downside I see is that the best discounts are at TA's and thus, if there are not many TA's in your area then it may not be a good card for your needs.

So, here is what I did last time I ran o/o. Points reward credit card, local owned fuel stations, cha-ching. Local fuel stations seem to be less per gallon than the best fuel discount at the big dog stations.
-
That’s same thing I do. Just paid for most of a vacation to Disneyworld with reward points from last year.
-
I've got a new trick this time. I signed up for credit cards that have an annual fee, and unbelievable rewards. I'm trying to pay for my Vietnam trip this year with only points.TowHaul Thanks this.

Mom and pop and local all day long, screw the mega over priced fuel stops. Mega fleets give them enough business.MTN Boomer Thanks this.

It depends on where you run. If I ran in an area with a lot of QT’s, it’d be easy to use cash back credit cards. Here in FL, the mom and pops are priced well above the cost plus pricing I get with TCS. Accounting is much easier with a fuel card

EFS has good discounts
-
i second tcs. up to .60 cpg although it is mostly on ta/petro. most of the time is cheaper than mom and pop shops and the showers are definetly the best
-
right i was looking at the Amex Platinum rewards card... the reward are head splitting for what you get...(so is the $550 annual fee). Trying to see why this risk might be worth it, or if i should stick with the fuel savings from my regular fuel card....freebirdnca Thanks this.
