How good could their coffee be. When they truck it in, in those tanker trucks I prefer fresh coffee

 

[greg334]

Well seeing we are 'truckers' we don't know what good coffee is, so they can truck it in by the tanker.

This is what I was told sitting at Starbucks in Jacksonhole Wyoming as the ski'n guys and gals made fun of my truck sitting next to their custom made prevosts.

I buy at the Pilot,,mainly because because thats where the HUGE discounts come from.
I do avoid the one in Ionia Mich along I-96,,,For some reason my truck doesn't do so good on it, both in power and mileage.The fuel is heavy yellow in color.Not sure why,,I think they blend the bio on site and meter it into the pumps???? It has the color of corn unlike all the other Pilots I go that for the most part is pretty clear in color like kerosene..


My coffee comes from my pot unless I have been waken with a load and then I avoid the truck stop coffee when possible,,
Something bout bulk coffee just doesn't sit with me
Wait maybe its the dirty pots and containers.. and not the coffee

Hmm,,,well yellow diesel, bad coffee, yellow snow,,could be something there, u can think about it.lol

Pilot fuel. Pilot coffee. My truck seems to have no problems with any of them. I will use Love's as second preference, if I have to. But truck burns all of them.

Ye'p ,
in Expedite quality coffee is more important then discounted fuel.

 

[guido4475]

I prefer Petro and T/A,but no longer use them as the new carrier has a deal set up with the FlyingPilot...,which I personally cant stand.Always a cluster**** at the fuel islands,showers,etc.But All I can do at this point is overcome and adapt.

where or what brand of diesel fuel do u purchse.

Well yesterday was a case of whoever had any LOL

Tried at 2 locations and both had no power, but third time's a charm

Normally Pilot or J

 

[jelliott]

Just an FYI - I had heard in the past that flying J fuel was a lower cetane rating and was cheaper but not as good.

After the merger with Pilot I inquired with our rep. on the fuel situation. He informed me that Pilot now provides the fuel at the flying J's and that it is the fuel that Pilot has always used.

 

[OntarioVanMan]

I am thinking the cetane would probably vary from region to region...In the past I've seen Pilot and J tankers fueling up at the Shell refinery in Sarnia Ont...

 

[moose]

and that it is the fuel that Pilot has always used.

You can recycle fuel ?

 

[jjoerger]

Our truck runs noticeably better on T/A or Petro fuel. Plus we get a really good discount at T/A.

I do a lot of Speedway diesel..which I get great fuel mileage it is a Marathon owned...

yesterday I filled up at a BP off the main strip of Effingham $3.19 whist the J was 3.33 and the TA was 3.35...free shower my butt....

I do a lot of Speedway diesel.
