No they don't post gas prices just Diesel prices without taxes. PUC is what large trucking operations can get to exclude them from paying tax on diesel fuel. Only diesel fuel. So if you own your own 18 wheeler you can get a tax exempt card for diesel. Not gas. Very confusing for sure. I have been suckerd in more than once. Just have to be on your toes.

Get the Gasbuddy app for your smart phone and you can plan your fuel stops to lessen gouging.

It looks as if the current price,at Pilot/flying J's in Oregon on I-5,is 3.59 plus .30 tax or 3.89 a gallon and the price at Tumwater,Wa is 3.79. I think I'll get fuel in Oregon at Eugene on the way down and then hit the one in Wa on the way home.
We're headed for Florence and it's 700 r/t. So if I top off at Tumwater on the way down,65 miles,I should be able to do the whole trip on 1 tank and fill it there when I come home. That's figgering a 100 gallon tank at 7.5. I applied for a Good Sam fuel card and that's .08 a gallon discount and the .10 difference makes it .18 a gallon difference,so on about 90 gallons or about $16 off of a bill of around $360.
I drive a school bus part-time to pay for my trips and that'll be about 40 hours for fuel and campsite.Who cares tho,anything to do a road trip.

Yeah I have lived here for 14 years I still don't get it. Some of those stations post the PUC with credit or cash when you pull in they tell you Oh you can just pay credit and get the same price as cash. Very confusing to say the least.
