I really hate Loves

What a dream.

 

I must be weird. I fuel at Loves every time. Most of the time it's on I74 in Indiana exit 123 or on I70 in Illinois exit 119. Seems to never be any lines, and the ladies behind the counter are always pleasant.​

 

So does this mean i won't have to worry about you taking up a spot at the love's

 

Take off, and call the company for a fuel plan once you find a good parking place for the night...
Heck even Swift, as bad as they can be, never said a word about me blowing off a "preferred" station to get to a station that wasn't dangerous or way out or route, or super busy!

For example they loved to route me to Minooka, IL Pilot after getting a Costco load going home. I would always call at the TA across from Costco, say I'm at 1/8 of a tank and they would approve the fuel. Or I would be very low on fuel from home time (see heavy Costco load above for my typical home time load), get a load coming out of Port Huron and they wanted to route my to Saginaw, from Flint, back to Port Huron to pickup. No thanks, I'll be passing a Flying J on the way out (in Lansing), I think I'll stop there. Later, after it was built, I could stop at the Pilot by Port Huron.

 

Yeah loves isn't without its hassles for sure but until pfj matches loves on points I buy 99.9 percent of my fuel from loves .

 

There are a few notorious ones that are a penny cheaper and people just swarm to get fuel there.

Save a penny a gallon but it takes 45min to get fuel.

 

I only go to Loves. I only frequent establishments that go that extra mile like saying "Welcome to Loves" to each and every person every single time that door opens. Makes me feel like an old friend.

 

That's the company fuel planning not giving a crap about the driver's time. That's when I did as stated above....
If you (company) think so little of my time that's unpaid, I don't care about you saving even 25 cents a gallon, much less the more probable 2-3 cents.

 

I agree. I am a dedicated run, company driver, but I have a credit card and can get fuel wherever I want. I only go to Loves.
