    They recently made the move to having the chipped cards. So, my new one will have the chip. And I have no clue on how those work, but it's suppose to be more secure.

    I know they won't be able to use an RF reader on me. I rarely take my wallet into a truck stop. And I have one of those wallets that blocks that kind of stuff. I know it works because the electric key card for the building in Sapulpa won't work through my wallet and other people will.

    Chips are not RF . Chips are just a new way instead of the mag swpie . All the hacks i have had was from using in stores in my opnion.

    That is why I try to pay cash, but being on the road that can be hard. I really hate using an ATM as that is the most common place to get hacked.

    Online payments are done through PayPal and I can say that over the past 10 years of using PayPal I have never been hacked.

    A clean truck is a happy truck. Parked next the scale at Streakin Beacon getting tire shine.

    So I checked my tires again, and they were worse than I thought, so I replaced with two new x line energy steers at the terminal. Buying a used one and mounting would have been close to just buying a new one anyways.

    They have RFID....

    Why.....

    The better to track you with as you blow by the weigh stations and toll booths. They can say yep, based on that tires RFID it was moving at xxx rations which means he was doing 90mph, so that's a paddlin
