    Does anyone have the RTS card, mainly for use with Pilots and Flying J's? My trucks are in the area where they are dominated by Pilot and i am looking for a card that will save me the most in fuel discounts. Wondering if anyone has good or bad to say about this fuel card. Thank you in advance

    Yup , good card . I'm setup on auto pay , they have online portal to see all transactions by state helping make ifta easy . They also have independents that are normally 15 to 20 cents cheaper than J or Pilot . Never had a issue

    I'm second with Danny. Application to look cheaper fuel around is lil slow but helps a lot.

    I have it, but I always use to the app to search for cheaper alternatives to PFJ. Basically your discount on the RTS card is the same as the cash price at any PFJ, which isn't much of a discount.

    I have it. My discount is better than that, Steve, you should call them. Usually about .30 off the cash price.

    I called them when trying to decide between RTS and NASTC but it didn’t sound like much of a discount. Ultimately went with NASTC but it’s TAs and Petros so that may not help you. Fueled as low as $1.72 at the TA last week. Wonder how @86scotty got those .30 off the cash price but that would certainly make it pretty sweet.

    Just like any credit company they look at a lot of things. Debt to income, credit score and history, etc. I got my credit in really good order for years before I started this.
     
    Super-Trucker Thanks this.

    Probably depends on how many trucks are in your fleet but the company I'm leased to gets a nice discount at Pilot/Flying J. We use an EFS card for fuel and today if I fueled at Birmingham, AL Pilot Flying J the actual price would be 56 cents below cash price. We get an email list daily for what the price at every pilot in the country is going to be the following day.

    It works pretty good in most areas. Some Pilots have better discounts than others. Use the app and you can plan out pretty easy on best places to fuel.
