    I dont have this problem. I mean I see it happening sometimes but I plan/ schedule/ adjust around it.

    I don’t think I’ve spent over 15 min total getting fuel and a riecpt, ever. Maybe I’m just lucky? Or maybe I’m assessing the situation before I pull into a pump to fuel or decide to leave if I see a potential cluster happening? I’ll just get fuel somewhere or sometime else?

    Stay out of the pilot and flying J solves over 50% of it alone.

    And he still makes twice the money you do, has a pretty truck, a prettier wife that he actually likes, and works half as hard.

    So you're point is?

    I do fuel at Peelot or TA, dependent on who gives the best price, but never Loves. I don't have issues either.

    Agree about the 8 hour "break". Im not even "tired" till around 12 hours.

    The only Loves I frequent is in Napavine, WA.

    Hit it while the solar powered drivers are asleep and it’s a breeze...

    I won’t 10 there but I’ll fuel there before mucking about in Seattle.

    No one works "1/2 as hard as me" I've been playing golf all day with my 10/11 year old son and daughter.:bootyshake:
