Calculation for fuel

FUELBOOK app is a Great tool

 

If that's all you do, then yes buy all your fuel in IL.

 

If you are running team like we did, you will be filling 300 plus gallons every 30 hours give or take.

It worked out to a overall average of 6.5 in our 2001 century. But 9-11 caused us to purchase 6.00 fuel for two tanks worth. Company paid it without complaint. Should have filled earlier, but you don't always get to know what is coming in that day with pricing. One truckstop was told to close when he tried to do 10.00 gallon fuel here in Arkansas about that time period. Even now I don't know what the real story is.

There is a thread mentioned already that refers to fuel. In it I should still have a story where Im told not to fill in CA due to fleet filling too much there for that month and had to hunt fuel in AZ betting everything on a pair of 5s which never really works out.

It's very expensive to run OUT of fuel.

 

I had this app once, is the price shown on the app, the price before IFTA or with? If I recall right, it is with the tax...

 

It shows both.
To see price less IFTA you just tap the SORT tab ( upper right) then tap LESS IFTA and the page will change and show price less IFTA

 

been driving OTR for 32 yrs. don't
understand this partial fueling trend.
