Fueling Stops, I hate going to Pilot and Flying J

Yep... I had to call in to get my card unlocked when I recovered a truck and needed fuel from a TA. I think there were a few fuel stops approved that were not FJ/P, but I don't have the guide anymore.
My advice? When you're close to a TA/Petro send in a fuel request macro saying you are on empty. Never tried it, but always heard guys saying it worked.

 

Only thing is, they can read how much fuel you have off the ECM. Thru performance monitoring, it gives them a fuel % reading.

 

Then it has changed since I left there. Interesting. To add to the list, I had used the card at Speedway with success, but I had to go inside.

 

Yep, Speedway's, Wilco-Hess's (if not changed already), Circle K in Maine, and of course the dump with bad fuel near the puzzlepalace that I always seem to skip when going up 43

 

We don't use the dump anymore. We get the Kwik Trip across the street.

 

Way better option

 

I once got a fuel stop at the TA south of Nashville. But if you follow the fuel solutions it'll almost always be pilot/j.

Imo, as silly as the metrics are, they're easy enough to follow and I made over 2k last year from the bonuses. That was in 9 months. Extra money doesnt hurt.

 

It's not a bonus, you work for it and they pay you if you follow directions.

I'm mot saying it's not nice but if it were a bonus you'd be paid the "bonus" based on driving the truck not following directions.

Either way more money to the driver is less to SNI but they'd never give out the "bonus" if they weren't making more off the fuel savings anyway.

So carry on.

 

Whoa, wait, are you trying to claim the random fuel solutions are tied to rebates? Sheesh, next thing you'll claim is its also an IFTA issue

 

It also rubs me the wrong way how Schneider "programs" drivers into thinking that it's free extra pay...it's not, they're paying you to make them money by making on time deliveries and getting better fuel mileage.

And then they take those extra pennies per mile away from you as a "per diem service charge"
