    $1 per gallon is a lot.

    East New York, PILOT/TA $6.50, service plaza diesel $5.50

    What's going on here?

    Are Flying J & TA just flat out screwing drivers that bad?

    Because they can and no one complains to the states about it.

    we are a captive group, dealing with the whims of these truckstops.

    The megas have regular accounts and they give a pretty large discount to those companies and how do you think they’re giving out all those rewards?

    I bought fuel in Wyoming my cost was almost $1 less than the pump price at TA with my discount
