If you ever run thru wichita falls, Texas i know where it's 2.81$ a gallon. It's mostly mom n pops truckstops that have the low priced fuel. I've had to bite the bullet a few times and get that HIGH dollar fuel. I don't have a "fuel card " , i use my debit card. I personally don't want to be told where i can and can't buy fuel. I do have a loves express card, use it mostly at speedco (i drive a 13 letter s#@t spreader), they are an authorized service point for my warranty on my ISX15. I remember when fuel was under $1 a gallon, then everyone wanted their hand in the cookie jar.
