    don't need to be convinced. i live in a realistic world. where 6 gallons of def take longer to pour then 200 gallons of fuel. and being as all we fuel is loves. where you walk in grab receipt and leave. i have yet to spend less then 20 minutes. let alone fuel reefer and park.

    Those are some nice miles. Each day sounds like a typical weekend (not each day of the weekend. I mean both days together.) for me when on the road.

    I have no reason to come on bere and make stuff up.
    You on the other hand have a history of spreading false information.

    Anyway as you can see from a couple of the other posts. I'm not the only one that can Fuel in Super Trucker Time (your own Words).
    I didn't think I was there yet. But thanks.. Actually makes me feel good to be considered a Super Trucker.

    There's your problem right there in boldface. You're working for a company that requires receipts. Love's hasn't figured out how to have more than one person working the counter yet. Meanwhile I presume you've finished fueling and pulled forward before walking in to get your receipt?

    I work on e-logs. Typical fuel time for me is 6-8 minutes including getting the windshield washed while fueling. If I have to pump DEF once every week or so it might bump it up to 10-12 minutes, although I had a very slow DEF pump the other day that pushed my fuel time to 15 minutes.

    I work for Swift, so I know I must be a Super Trucker. ;)

    Dont drive a DEF truck, my sig tells you that much. Also I've seen guys pull in pump fuel and def and be gone before I can out on 200 gallon.

    Ive vey been stopped several times and I've never had a single cop say a #### word about the way I put 15 minutes. I've done that pulling flatbed, cattle pots, hopper bottoms, and coal buckets. Never heard anything about it so, looks like DOT doesn't have a problem with it.

    Drivers don't cheat on logs, I have the Valet fuel my truck while I am enjoying the Ham & biscuit's in the VIP dining area. Off duty, or something like that. LOL
