pilot/flying J/loves etc...what lanes do you use?

Hi All,

getting ready to go on our first major 2 week vacation to Moab and Zion with the Ram 3500 and 40' Montana.
we have done over half dozen trips in Oregon.
still new to the 5th wheel/diesel truck part, not new to RV had a 35' class A and toad.

my question is what lanes do you use at the truck stops?
the normal lanes or the trucker lanes and how do the truck lanes work?
i plan out my gas stops ahead of time with several apps i find google maps to be helpful to get a quick look.

thanks

Jeff

    Don't know about Loves, but Flying J /Pilot has its own credit card now. We us regular gas, so the only issue we have is ease of exit when choosing a lane! The Flying J/Pilot credit card works like every other one does.

    Pull up have your wife go inside tell $ amount you won't exceed, diesel only or DEF also and pump number. Have her use the restroom, she get's two rings from you indicating you are finished, you pull ahead and she comes out after paying and drive off into the sunset!

    I always use the truck lanes. I have a Flying J card so I don't have to go inside to pay. I have a $2000 monthly limit tied into my bank checking account. They automatically take the charges out the following month on the 23rd. It works great for me and have had no issues for three years doing it this way.
