    I think it is better to ask "which one is most convenient?" They all have good and bad. I'm a platinum at TA/Petro, which means my showers don't expire, I get double points for all gallons above 130, I get double points for everything in the shop. I get 1 drink for every fuel 96 gallons or more and free FAX once a day.

    The downside is having to get certificates instead using the card as a debit card like Love's and Pilot Flying J.

    The downside of Love's and Pilot is using their small lots.

    My brother made the same mistake, using points to buy a GPS, etc. His accountant said use the points for food, you get a per diem anyway and gear is a write off and should be best purchased with your own dollars.
     
    Bean Jr. Thanks this.

    Oh I think I'll get by just fine. I don't live on the road. I only spend two full days on the road per week. The first day begins at home and the fourth ends at home.

    How is $120 dollars cash in my pocket a bad thing? There's really nothing edible on the road anyways. I cook at home and bring two meals with me in the cooler and spend $16 dollars a week for a meal or two at the SAPP Bros in Percieval Ia. I really don't have very many road expenses.
