Trip planner

I just became a member of Good Sam primarily for the trip planner. It seems really cool, but maybe with one problem?

Am I missing something, or is there no way to see gas stations along the way? I can see Flying Js but they may be too far apart to fuel at.

For example... I will need to refuel about every 300 miles. It would be great to see gas stations along the way (especially ones ON the highway)... Even better would be an option to tell it how often you need to get gas, and it would show the stations between 250 and 300 miles. Then you could pick the one in that group that best suits your needs.

  • tommymsw,

    Thank you for contacting Camping World and providing your feedback. One of the Good Sam Club membership benefits is that you can receive 5 cents off of gas and 8 cents off of diesel fuel at Pilot Flying J stations which is why you are able to see them on the Good Sam Trip Planner.

    Thanks,

  • I did end up getting the gas buddy app. Looks like it will come in REALLY handy!

    Somebody should combine ALL these apps and make one GREAT one! :) Still... beats the HECK out of a paper map and outdated travel books! :)

    I'll second the gas buddy app, or use the gas station finder on the Waze GPS app. The one thing you will notice is that the Pilot/Flying J's are almost always close to 10 cents/gal higher than any other gas station at the exit. I just traveled from Viginia to Wyoming and back and never once stopped at a Pilot/Flying J for that reason. Even with the Good Sam card discount they were always higher.

  • Or try the app iExit. I believe you can get gasoline station info on Google maps also.
  • Hello tommymsw,

    Thank you for your suggestion. Currently the trip planner only has the pilot/flying j option. I have forwarded your suggestion to our leadership team for them to consider.

    Thanks again...Rudy
