I use Fleet One fuel card, but ever since they merged with EFS & FTS fuel card companies, the 3rd decimal on the fuel quantity has been missing from my fuel reports. Are we being ripped off (again)? For example, this is what my fuel reports would show for fuel quantity:
160.550
123.280
68.360
The 3rd decimal is now always zero.

They round it to the nearest digit. If it’s .007 it goes to.010, .093 would be .090

.001 of a gallon doesn't ad up to squat even at the end of the year, hell the tempature of the fuel when it comes out of the pump could affect the amount of fuel your actually buying your wasting your time being worried about it. you probably use that much fuel waiting for your truck to warm up and build air in the morning. i would question the accuracy of the meters in the pump more than i would worry about rounding of the thousandths of a gallon
AModelCat, Oxbow, kemosabi49 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Might not be but a penny for us, but a nice chunk of change for them.
PE_T Thanks this. -
If you really want to stick it to them just make sure the final digit is a 4. Then you’ll be making out like a bandit.
beastr123, Oxbow, PE_T and 1 other person Thank this. -
Who doesn’t stop their fuel at even gallons anyways? And if you’re worried about a thousandth of a gallon then don’t ever go to Canada and fuel at a cardlock. Those bandits up there still have the dial pumps and only show tenths of gallons.
Oxbow Thanks this. -
