Fueling

[Tom Warner]

Bruce this is simply not true about Flying Js not being designed for
traffic routing. Big trucks go in and out of their complexes 24 hours
aday and never have a problem. The problem is that many RV owners do
not know how to properly use the various lanes. Bluebird diesels
should be filling at the truck pumps not the RV pumps because of
their tank size. It will take a very long time to fill a 265 or 300
gallon tank on a BB at the RV pumps.
AS for the credit card companies they DO NOT impose any daily or per
use limits on your card. They do watch your credit limit on the card
and your spending pattern and if something outside those limits come
up they immediately contact you to confirm its you using the card for
a legitimate purpose. It it the fuel station owners that are imposing
these crazy limits on you. The solution, send an email to the fuel
company (shell, etc) and tell them how unhappy you are with this
problem at Shell oil station # XXx in Cortland NY etc. They will
respond if enough people do it.

However once again...get a flying J RV card and a major credit card
and these problems will cease to exist for you.
