How Do You Find Cheap Fuel? Which apps and sites do you use?

The question to ask would be which has more impact on the environment? A driver throwing their DEF containers away properly and not in our rivers and lakes, or them idling all night in a courtesy parking space?

 

Why do people buy DEF containers? Is it cheaper? Do the DEF pumps not work on their trucks? I have never purchased a DEF container in my almost 6 years of trucking.

 

Never had a "clean" truck. LOL
But I think it has to do with quality.

 

Their property and their right to charge for parking.
If they don't why not park free? TAs LOVEs and P/FJ pushed out or acquired Ma&Pa truck stops without much consideration for their well beings after either.

 

I vote for NASTC. They have an app where you can view the fuel stops on a map and press them to know the fuel price for today and tomorrow. Here are today’s prices on some of the usual cheapest fuel stops.

That's with fuel tax included?!!!!!! Fantastic! I really gotto go to Nashville and sit there like in old school days for ...how many hours?

 

If they do it for the DEF quality, they should just buy DEF from well-maintained and frequently-used truck stops. I like buying DEF from Speedway. Those truck stops look nice and have cheap DEF.

 

If I remember correctly, it’s from 8am-5pm. The class is not mandatory, but if you don’t go, you must sign up to their monthly safety program, which costs about $30 monthly (I think).

 

If they are in a Peterbilt it might be the gauge isn't working correctly just like their sending units in the fuel tank. I was in one and it started bouncing from full to empty so I stopped and bought a container. That was a waste of money, had plenty in the tank

 

A lot of small fuel stops don’t have def pumps so you have to buy it in jugs or go to a real truck stop and use their def pump
