Fuel at the Talkeetna turnoff, Glennallen & Palmer
This should save you a little money on fuel.
At mile 101 of the Parks Hwy just on the north side of the Talkeetna turnoff is a very large Tesorro fuel station. The price of their fuel is within pennies of what you'll pay in Anchorage. And they're cheaper than the fuel stations in Wasilla that are 60 miles closer to Anchorage. The diesel is in the outside pumps. All of the pumps are very easy to get into with long RVs.
Out in Glennallen the main fuel stop is the Hub, right at the intersection of where the Glenn hits the Richardson Hwy. Lots of room for long RVs. The Hub has very expensive fuel - some of the most expensive in Alaska. The best thing to do is just take on enough to either get you to Valdez or into Palmer.
If going to Palmer, pay attention, just as you're going down a little hill on the edge of Palmer, on the left hand side you'll see Fred Meyer's fuel station. It has lots of room for long RVs and plenty of room to fill up propane without unhooking. Their fuel is only a few cents more than Anchorage. Don't look for the Fred's store as there wasn't room to build their fuel station at the store so it's before the store.
