![]() I have seen them as much as $.60 per gallon.Ī couple of advantages with using the TSD discount isġ) you are not limited to $75 like when using a credit card. We got a $.47 discount at a TA near Tampa FL yesterday. With the Open Roads TSD discount, Loves is currently at $.28 per gallon. This cost per mile depends on your registered vehicle weight with Oregon. If your vehicle is above 26,000 gross vehicle weight in Oregon, you pay a weight mile for your vehicle's state diesel tax. If you're not familiar with the Oregon PUC: If the discount with the TA is ~.35 then the price is $3.80 / gallon which is OK but still on the high side and may be worth the stop considering the access and convenience of easy off, easy on. 40 more than other stations near by.Ĭommon sense and some quick math may save more than the discount card in this case. 16 / gallon at LOVES, then the price I would pay is $4.04 / gallon. Other stations, less than 5 miles away and easy access from route I-84, usually less than a mile from the exit, like Chevron, Sinclair and Jacksons fuels (local provider high volume) are between $3.61 and $3.89 with Chevron on the high end. 20 and then the Credit price probably what shows in Gas Buddy, for a lot more than the PUC, then the CASH price somewhere inbetween the Credit and PUC price sometimes. (public utilities commission) price for a lot less, usually. ![]() The sign out in front the station facing traffic (HUGE you can't miss it) will flash the P.U.C. I think the prices reported in Gas buddy and RV Trip WIzard are the consumer price. The TA just down the road still in Oregon is $4.15 RV Trip wizard and Gas Bubbdy show the LOVES in Ontario, Oregon at $4.20 and the flying J/Pilot at $4.25 ( Gas buddy doesn't have any information for the flying J closest to me) The more I learn, I realise there is more to learn. There are as many or more posts touting a good experience or at least no engine issues at those stations. ![]() There is no way they could stay in buisness if the fuel was truely poor quality, the big rigs would stay away in droves. Perhaps my opinion is based on OLD information and is no longer valid. I may need to reconsider my stance about the Flying J / LOVES / Pilot self subscribed boycott aside from the fact that they are typically more expensive than others around them, even with a discount of. Granted this post is from a long time ago and life/fuel supplies have changed and improved. I recall reading about the issues, but don't have them at my fingertips. I see that if you search for trouble spots, you will find supporting information, somewhere. OK, Here is a post that reports an issue. Maybe they are just taking advantage of divers the "absolutely need fuel" and will pay anything rather than use Gas Buddy to find something cheaper. In My area, where route 84 passes through, the Flying J / Pilot pumps are. Thanks for the contributions to this thread, it really helped. Yes, I realize that many of the discounted fueling stations available to the EFS- TSD card are those stations. I'll need to transfer more into the account as it gets used, which is not an issue with the credit unions online or phone access.Īs purely a personal choice, I will be avoiding Flying J, Pilot and Love's based on what I've read about the experiences of drivers on. Theoretically, with the other voice identification, pin number and secret questions I have set up with my credit union, that it should be a lot more difficult to access any other of my credit union funds if the TSD / Open Roads card website or database is hacked.Īt least that's the plan. I deposited an intial amount into the account and then applied for the TSD / Open Roads card. ![]() No Overdraft so that if someone, somehow gets into it, they can only have what is remaining in the account and I can dispute the usage. The account is set up with no overdraft protections, so it's up to me to keep track of the balances, just like any other checking account. After much reading of posts here on RV Network and on other RV sites, I chose to apply for the TSD / Open Roads card.īeing concerned about the access to funds in my regular banking accounts, I created a new checking account that has no cost to me through my credit union(First Tech Credit Union).
