    Right?! What is it, 20K points to 'Platinum' and that's measured year to year? Screw the TA / Petro reward system.

    Yeah. I'm going to use the rest of my money on the card and throw it away. Months of using ta to get points and it doesn't amount to much.

    JMO, Loves had me w/ free refills, then realized I was earning 3-4x the points every month... sure beats the heck out of TA and the Pilot $10 bonus or double points!

    I've never heard that before, it sure explains a lot of the issues I've had waiting 20min in fuel lane.

    Got a friend that works for Swift,he owns his truck.
    Used to do most of his fueling at Love's. But has since switched to Pilot.. Last I heard (sent me a copy of his receipt) he was up to $500 in points.
    (He is) Always giving me a hard time about the points.
    Company I drive for does pretty much all our fueling at PFJ.

    I'm more worried about the lines inside. As long as the bottleneck is inside the Fuel lines can't clear up.

    The ultra one is not easy to use for redemption. The points don't expire, however, and once you make platinum, you only need to 10,000 a year to keep it. My showers don't expire.

    I'm just saving to by another cb to leave turned off.

    I really like this small place in Chicago. Guy let's you pick anything in the store (within reason) that you can have for free. So a free coffee, snack, or pop every time I fuel there. I'll take that any day over reward points that are a pita to use.

    I agree!, That's a place that needs some free advertisement, throw the name or intersection out there for all to hear, I'm jealous!!
