    And I use my esso key to the highway at husky now. They don't give husky points though. I get my esso discount at both esso key and husky cardlock now. I think it is a good move by the 2 companies.

    I try not to deal with the locations run by bvd. They were after me hard to get their fuel card with fuel discounts based on volume and loyalty. So as a single truck guy I will never meet their volume and will be paying pretty well full price anyway. Esso key has much better customer service for the small operator.

    Price of what, the fuel? Both of them are very good and they are usually within 1 cent of each other. Neither one is consistently better than the other. Now it will all be run by esso so we are getting esso cardlock pricing anyway.

    I choose husky when I'm in Canada for showers and I prefer their restaurants over what fj offers. Unless I am in close enough proximity to walk elsewhere. Now I can fill up with them. Yay. I used to like fj before the pilot merge. I wasn't buying fuel at that time. Since then they have really f-ed it up.

    Husky showers?? I use them when I have no choice but they are a home for bacteria and disease. If you watched them clean the showers you would go elsewhere. Do you get a better price at Husky than a Flying J??? Most Husky's are a dirty hole with a Canadian flag full of wholes!!!

    He's right though.. I wouldn't step foot in one without sandals, and even then I do whatever I can to find a better alternative.. You can probably get hepatitis just from using one.. Have you seen the showers in Bradford? They literally smell like urine.

    I will agree some are better than others. I use mostly the Mississauga one at Kennedy and courtneypark. Also use st catharines, London, north bay, nipigon, Dryden, headingley, Regina and Saskatoon, lloydminster Calgary and Cranbrook. I have no use for Bradford.

    Flying j doesn't want my business. They show me this through their 1 cent off cash price per litre offering. I would save more if paying the cash price anywhere else even after their joke of a discount. At about .15 per litre I am saving ... I will put up with I guess how gross husky showers are. Maybe I am made of steel. Never gotten sick from one yet.
