    And the Monument, CO Peelot fuel stop it gives shows the wrong exit number...it's the right location number, just wrong exit.

    I usually go 287 myself, but went their way the last time, and other than some decent grades in CO and part of NM, it wasn't bad. A lot more 4 lane roads than running 287...but not as many places to stop for a break.

    I love how they call it a 'solution' when the problem clearly lies with them.

    I feel for these guys that have to deal with bs like that plus leaving the other hand stuck most of the weekend waiting on an empty trailer.

    I was informed you can get fuel at any Loves,Petro,Ta without a fuel solution.
    I stopped at a TA and there pumps were down,when I told them there was a new Loves across the street,that didn’t show up on their board,they told me to just get fuel there,that I didn’t need a solution.

    But you have to get Lincoln to unlock your card to fuel off solution. Then it will also count as a non-compliant fuel up, and too many of those and they keep your bonus and possibly have your truck turned back down. I asked Lincoln for a new solution when I was below the level for a Peoplenet request to work, they just unlocked my card so I could put 50 gal in at the closest fuel network location. I put 50 in at the Peelot in Columbus, OH...and got hit with my 1st non-compliant fuel-up.

    I wouldn't do it a lot, but just charge it as reefer fuel at that point. It'll be an hour before you can get reefer fuel again, and caps at 50 or 75 gallons, but won't ding you.

    “Non compliant”. “Unlock your card”. Geez, how I don’t miss that level of horse manure.

    I’ve had them unlock it due to a fuel stops pumps malfunctioning and shutting off so they had me go down the street and fuel and i never got hit with non compliant fuel stop…

    I even got Deland involved since I was told to do it and it was at a Peelot, but they tried to get it fixed, but Lincoln still saw it as non-compliant. It was the only non-compliance I've ever gotten, but it just pissed me off that I did what I was told and still got dinged.
