You should negotiate with your company for a gas card. Glad I have one.

It's free. Knocks ~$.50 a gallon off at my closest station. I've seen over $1 a gallon discounts at some stations.

Walmart+ is also $.10 a gallon off all their pumps. I save more than the $99 membership fee on just fuel discounts.

$4.74 outside of Rockwall just now. Remember the days when diesel was cheaper than gas?

The Rockwall TA is $4.02 and the Loves is $4.04/gal right now on the OpenRoads app. That isn't a bad discount, and you can pay at the high flow pumps.

It is nuts that diesel was ~$3.25 a gallon a month ago.

Down to $2.92 in Aggieland last week and saw it this morning for $4.56. But, I never expected to save money buying a diesel truck.

Let Trump finish off the Iranians and the price of fuel will go back down.
So the greatest civilization is one where all citizens are equally armed and can only be persuaded, never forced. It removes force from the equation... and that's why carrying a gun is a civilized act.

I see this and can't help thinking there's a catch.

Have you had any problems?

$99 annual seems high, but with an RV, that could get covered fast.

Nearly $235 dollar to fill up my truck. Yikes.

I have a 62 gallon tank on a 2002 Sierra 2500. At $4.20, that's about $260.

The good news is that it's still about 2/3 full of cheap diesel, which means I have about 700 miles until empty.

I have hopes the price is better then.

I've used it multiple times in a day, no problem. It is 10c off at the Walmart/murphy stations and Exxon/Mobil stations. You can buy at Sam's with it too if not a member.

The catch is probably you can't share it with your spouse. I have to log out of the app for my wife to log in and use it.

Between 10c off at Exxon and free Paramount+, it's the best subscription deal. You're paying $99/yr the delivery/pickup service, the fuel discounts and Paramount are lagniappe.

One of my moron cousins bought a new Tahoe last year and then traded for the diesel version three months later because "it gets better mileage"

But he also works as salesman for a GM dealer so he effectively sold the car to himself to get the commission. I'm sure he still came out negative on the deal.

Up over $4.50 in Georgia. I have a Tesla for daily commute thank God.

My truck had another DEF warning come on last weekend. I am pissed I did not do the DEF delete.

No catch so far. They do pass through billing via their fuel card/app. IIRC, there's an extra charge if you fund the passthru with a credit card but no charge for using a bank account. You pay 10% of the savings and a $.65 transaction fee per fill. Filling up in the high flow lanes when pulling a trailer or in an RV is nice.

Walmart+ has replaced a lot of my Amazon shipping. I'm 10+ miles from the closest store, but they still deliver same day as part of that $99 fee, and I can get stuff delivered within an hour for an extra $10. The gas discount is just icing on the cake. It's been a game changer living in the "sticks" where Amazon doesn't offer same day/next day delivery.
