All fueling has been suspended indefinitely ...

I did at first when I was listening to it with Jane. Heard about fueling being suspended and then Jane cut out. Now just have to find that terminal next time that I am in that area, which probably not be until late Spring.

 

are they closing that one and moving it all to central? I was just there the other day and they don't do b services there anymore.

 

Is it Bangerter that we take off to go to Swift?
Well, just turn the other way and take the first right. That frontage road will take you to the Central terminal.
But you have to pass it and turn left on the next street (NOT driveway). Then go down a ways and take another left to get you to the backside of the terminal where the truck entrance is.

If you're lucky you'll be able to follow another Central or Swift truck going there.

There.
That's my version of Southerner directions.

 

Yes, yup, uh huh.

 

Hey I seen that too , not a big deal for me I guess . They never have me fuel at a terminal anyways unless its a central terminal.

Like where I am now , my fuel stop is across the street from the terminal . Kinda funny . Lol

 

It sounds simple enough to fuel at central in slc, but believe me, it sucks. Their fuel pumps are all inside the inspection bay and this is where they do all services on the trucks and trailers just short of major repairs. There's only 4 or 5 lanes and you may sit in line as I did the last time I was there for almost 2hrs just to get inside the bay for fuel and of course they inspect your trailer while you're there and judging from all the red tagged swift trailers that were lined up outside the odds of a quick fuel stop are not in your favor. If you're an o/o my advice would be to fuel elsewhere and avoid that place like the plague. Company drivers, I'm sorry. LoL. Last time I was there all lanes were backed up all the way out the gate to the rd in front of Kelly Simon. Just a little FYI and a friendly warning.

 

Yea that inspection bay thing does suck , idk every time I went there for just fuel , they never looked at the trailer once ..
I guess it depends on who is in there .

 

Sounds like I'll just automatically forget that fuel stop and "reopt" my fuel route on down the road. There's several terminals I no longer want to fuel at because it's such a time suck.

On a slightly different variant of the topic, anyone else getting fuel routes that include stops for 45 gallons? What's up with that? 50 gallons gets you a shower credit. I started bypassing those fuel stops as well in order to get more fuel and get the shower credit. This week we've now been getting nothing but fill ups on our fuel route with at least 700 miles between stops.

 

Well, if I have enough fuel to get out of town I never fuel at a terminal.
I normally just ignore that fuel stop and call when I really need fuel from a truck stop.
