    I use mudflap. I can see what's the retail price and what my discount's going to be on my app before I get to the gas station of my choice. what about fuel cards? if you have wex, fuelman or nestec can you see the discount you are going to get before you arrive ? let's say you at the gas station and want to choose between fuel card ..do u know what discount you are getting ? or you will find that out after the fact ?

    I have Nastc, on the app you can see the max price, and you will never pay more than that. 99% of the time you pay the max price. The area that I run Nastc offers the best price, and beats the mudflap price.

    I use FTN and Transconnect. Both have the ability to check on prices at anytime.

    I have an Amazon business card that gives me 2% on all purchases, and 5% on Amazon purchases. 2% adds up quick when you're pumping 4K a month in fue

    The annual membership is $400 the wrx card fee is $4.25 a month. I don't like paying the fees, but if I found a card that beat their prices in the areas that I run I would change. I haven't found one yet.

    That's only two cents per gallon. Even Mudflap kills that. On my fuel spreadsheet I keep track of the discount percentage, and Mudflap has passed 20% three or four times. That's ten times more than what you're saving. You should check it out. It's free.

    Check this out. MF stands for Mudflap. Percentage is second column from the right.

    Nastc is 400 per year plus 32 a month if you dont go to the annual meeting plus 4.50 a month card fee. Its the best ive seen for a 1 truck operation. If you only run western states though id keep looking, their locations are pretty thin through the west.
