I just came by Flying J in Seffner Fl. and the price of diesel was 3.45 per gallon. The highest of any fuel station I have seen in weeks. The price down the road at Racetrac was 3.05 and Hess was 3.06 so that is quiet a big difference. Cash back and discount does not cover that difference....

All the stations I have seen around here.... WalMart, Pilot, and other local chains all seem to have Diesel in the $3.35-$3.45 range and that hasn't changed much recently. Regular gas, on the other hand, has been steadily decreasing over the last month and is now around $2.26 at the same range of stations. Sure hope the price for gas continues to drop or at least holds steady over Christmas and New Years as I will be traveling during that time and burn through around 200 gallons in the next few weeks.

That is number 1 reason I stopped using Pilot/Flying J or other 'travel centers' YEARS ago.Fuel was always cheaper just down the road from them.

Have to agree...I used Flying J religiously before but in the last couple of years, their prices don't come close to what you can find elsewhere. Just as an example, when ever I went up the 5, I'd stop at the Flying J on the grapevine..now I can get fuel .50 cheaper here in my local community. Oh well. :-)

Flying J prices went up after the about went bankrupt and Pilot bought them. Now the prices at Flying J reflect the higher prices Pilot has always had. I never went to Pilot now I don't go to Flying J anymore.

I just noted this in another thread about "where do you buy fuel". At Thanksgiving, we passed two Flying J's on California Hwy 99 that had fuel at one for 35 cents a gallon more than stations at the next off ramp and another that was 40 cents more a gallon.I just don't get the love affair some have with buying fuel at truck stops. Higher prices, dirty islands and grumpy truckers. I'm 65' long and buy my fuel at local stations. Most modern stations have large islands and easy access. My choice for best fuel prices are, Indian Casinos, brand names such as Shell, Chevron, Mobil and some local types like Sinclair and Maverick. Truck stops are my last choice and Gas Buddy is your friend. Many may not know, but when you find a station on Gas Buddy, they will often have a photo of the station giving a good idea about size and access.
