for years I've got the cash price at pilot/flying J using my pen fed visa gas card. It has never charged me the credit card price. Get the cash price and a 5% rebate every month as well. even better than paying cash.
Also + 3 cents off with FJ RV card. - kgragertExplorerLast time I was at Flying J, their free card would get you the discount at the gas pumps without a Goodsam card.
They had a big ad campaign for their Flying J branded discount card.
The card was free and it also offered 10% off all purchases inside the store. - belfertExplorer

I usually use the auto lanes. I swipe my MC then swipe my RV Rewards card. I get diesel for 3 cents (I think) off the cash price. The RV Rewards card is NOT a charge card and is free.
Everything I can find about the RV Rewards cards is that you have to be a Good Sam member now to get one. I would like to find a way to get the cash price at the truck pumps without being a Good Sam member.
I want to use a credit card because I get 5% back plus I am NOT carrying $2000 in cash for fuel. - belfertExplorer

If you're filling your tanks, the RV pump is working at the rate they are designed to perform. The longer you're running that pump, the happier they are. Blocking a truck lane to put 30 or 40 gallons of diesel in you RV is another story. You're taking the space of a trucker that buys several hundred gallons of fuel at a time.
My tank is 150 gallons. I usually put in around 120 gallons when I fuel up so I'm not really taking away from sales to a truck. My RV is a converted coach bus so it was designed to fuel at the truck pumps. - C-BearsExplorerI'm not sure, but to get a full 8 cents off a gallon with the Good Sam/Pilot RV card I think you have to be a Good Sam Life Member. I only get 6 cents off with the Pilot card.
With a 39' fiver I always use the truck lanes. It takes me about 2 minutes, I pull forward, run in and get my receipt, and I am out of the way. If I want to check things over or get something to eat I go park my rig then go back inside.
I used the RV lanes once and got behind a MH that decided it was a good idea for him and his family to go inside while still at the pump and spend 20 minutes looking around. Never again. - Executive45Explorer IIIUsing my Good Sam/RV Plus card, I get cash price LESS 8 cents/gal, at the pump start and use the truck lanes with their decent sized fuel delivery hoses.
Don't care if you block the RV lanes. You'll only be Pi##ing Off your fellow RVrs....Dennis - ktmrfsExplorer IIfor years I've got the cash price at pilot/flying J using my pen fed visa gas card.

This is the reason I use the truck pumps. But you know what? They really don't care if you block the pumps
Anyway, If you get a RV Plus charge card, you can get the cash price at any pump.
I got one for my Pickup etc. The .05 a gallon adds up with all our gas operated equipment, the LP savings helps too - noplace2ExplorerOR, you could just pay cash! Just sayin'.
