    Hmmm.. to be 100% honest. .I haven't ever looked at the discount. . That's why my settlement is never exactly what I think it will be. . But it's usually within 50 $..when adding everything up I usually use a $3.85 avg fuel price.

    There is a website/app That will show you the cost/discount. The discounted price changes daily though.

    I've asked numerous times for the site and password and no one ever gets back to me with the info. . So if you find out. . Please share.

    Oh wait. . Probably shouldn't put the password here/open to the public. Oh well

    I look up the price in the EFS website and enter that price into my Fuel Gauges account. The price is within pennies of what hits the settlement. I always check fuel prices for myself. Many times, the fuel solution they send is the best, but sometimes I can beat it. Fuel price is a part of lowering overall fuel cost, not just MPG's.

    I shut down in Ardmore. .I didn't feel like fighting early evening Dallas traffic.. besides on the way I received 2 pre plans. .

    I deliver tomorrow in Terrel and then reload here In Ardmore going to Lincoln Al.. then load Gadsen heading back to KC. . Not hard trucking but I'm gonna need to keep my left door shut to have it done by Wednesday morning.

    At least I know what I'm doing for the next few days. :)

    Well I made my delivery in Terrell and am back at the hook in Ardmore..

    I took a shower and ate. . (I like the mvp breakfast at huddle house its cheap but a lot of food)..I should call and see if my load its ready. . I'm sure it is.

    On my way down I was originally sent a pre plan loading in Lawton And delivering KC tomorrow morning. .I responded the pp was good and that I always enjoy heading to kc, it's like heading home. That load would have given me 2, 600 miles for the week.

    I was immediately UN pre planned on that load and given the other two I mentioned above.

    So I'll end the week with 2, 100 miles. . Thank goodness I thought ahead and didn't fill my tanks. .I showed 50 gallons when I sent my empty call. The fuel gauge must be off though. .I filled after arriving in Ardmore. .gauge showed just above 25 gallons but 138 gallons filled me to the brim.

    2, 100 miles after fuel etc will net me $1, 100..

    I used to think that was a lot of money. . Now it's a disappointment lol
