fuel cards at trucker fueling stations

[Treefrog]

How does an RVer obtain a card to use a trucker fueling stations like Love, TA, Petra so that you start fueling, walking inside, pay, then leave?

Currently I have to walk in and ask the clerk to start the pump. Not efficient.

I use my Pilot/Flying J "RV Real Value" card (now called "MyRewards") that carries a smaller discount on fuel than the PFJ/GS card. It's a loyalty card, not a charge card, so I can use it along with my 5% fuel discount PenFed credit card for payment, saving even more than using the PFJ/GS card while still getting the pay at the pump option.

Is the P/FJ "RV Real Value" card a bigger, smaller or the same discount than a GS "swipe and save" discount for just having a regular GS (non P/FJ) card.

We use the Pilot RV card also and elect to pay once a month. I get a fuel discount and can fill my 100 gallon tank in minutes all while the DW and kids run inside to do what they do.

People that I know that use the program, say take a picture of the pump as you don't get a receipt unless you go in which defeats the purpose of paying at the pump.

The way that so many things can be hacked, maybe the checking acct.?, I'm OK with paying a few cents more. If my checking ever got hacked, it would cause me major pain and headache.

That is why you use a credit card. Account hacked is the credit card companies problem.Pay the bill each month and be done worrying

Yes, I agree as we use a CC too, but 'we' don't get the cash price at the pump.

You can opt to pay your monthly statement online or by check instead of by auto-draft.

X2 for the Pilot/FlyingJ rv card. Not only get cash price but 6 cents off of that too. However, you do have to belong to Good Sam in order to get this card.

Here is their web site.

As for other (Loves, TA, ect) just go to their website and see what they have to offer. Simple.
