    If using the Mudflap app you have to go inside to get the pump started.

    To many drivers these days on the edge packing heat that will shoot first so I just wait and shut up.
    Helps that I run the same lanes all the time so i avoid the trouble spots and any LOVES .

    and of course, if he WAS HAVING A BAD DAY........and he was royally ticked off at you, and he had a gun......

    he'd be carted off to jail, and you'd still be dead, but closer to home, so your family wouldn't have to go thru hell to get your remains from Bumhole America, to the funeral home.

    There's a Kwik Fill on I80 that I fuel at as much as I can because there's never a wait, I fueled there the day before. We can fuel just about anywhere that takes comdata but the company I work for gets a decent discount at PFJ and loves so I go there when I can. Unfortunately those are the places that attract all the inconsiderate drivers

    My dad told me about the old days. If someone made him mad he'd put a dime in the gasket of their red air line and watch them spend hours trying to figure out what was wrong with their truck. I don't think I could do that to someone, but I enjoy hearing the old days stories

    So does that equal u sitting and blocking the fuel island? Go find a parking spot while ur calling the company to figure it out. Sometimes being a human and considerate to others is hard, but possible.

    I could buy that IF the fuel island campers I read about all the time on here were the exception rather than the norm.

    Guess not many of the drivers are old enough to remember when you had to go into the fuel desk and leave your cash deposit to get the pumps authorized. Then the pump jockey fueled your truck and washed your windows.
    Oh for the days of old.

    I had a problem with Mudflap once. Turns out, after awhile they log you out to force you to log back in, and that re-verifies your credentials periodically, or something like that.

    Anyways, the very FIRST thing I did was got TF out of the way. Once I was up and running, I got back in line.
