Flying J RV Club

[wbmoore]

Flying J truck stops have a discount club for RVers:

Every little bit helps. Plus I think if you use the RV club card, you get cash price when you use a credit card.

If you notice on the left hand menu, they have a couple of more. As their web page states: "No purchase necessary to receive a Flying J RV Real Value card."

The fuel discount of 3 cents/gas, 1 cent/diesel has been discontinued. Now you must spend $10 in the restaurant to get any discount at all.

About the only thing the card is good for any more is receiving the cash price at the pump when you pay for a credit card.

The per-gallon discount is a joke. To get it, you have to spend so much per month in their restaurant or in merchandise purchases. And note there is a 100 gallon per month limit on gasoline and a 300 gallon per month limit on diesel.

On gasoline, if you spend $400 per month at their restaurant or in merchandise purchases, you can get a 30-cent per gallon discount. 30 times 100 gallons = $30. So you're going to spend $400 just to save $30 in gasoline??? That same $400 only gives you a measly 4 cent discount on diesel!

I have spent very little in flying j this past couple of months but I have somehow managed to spend enough to get 5 cents a gallon discount two months in a row and that is both propane and gas and I have bought well over 100 gallons of gas. My rig takes 70 gallons and I have traveled two or three days so that is 140 gallons or more each month. In several different states.

I love the flying j; Where can you get free overnight parking; free dump; free water; and a place that you can get gased up without the hassel of getting stuck behind cars.
The discount is an added bonus.

Petro, TAs and many other truck stop type facilities.

I notice the bulk of this thread was back in May. FJ has since reinstated the 1 cent discount on diesel (more on gas I believe but we never buy gas) with the discount card. I believe they have a MC as well for even deeper discount.

Does anyone know if these truck stops have dump stations?
If so which ones; I"m forever looking fo new places; so far for me; Flying J seems the most reliable.

Dump Stations for TA are here.

TravelCenters of America provides ample RV parking at its locations coast-to-coast, whether stopping for quick break or a longer, relaxing meal stop.
no mention of overnight parking. I just wonder if they allow it?
flying J puts RV overnight parking on their web site. This is important to me when I:m making a long trip and only want a place to park near the road. The noise never bothers me. An idleing 18 wheeler is just like falling rain to me.

Kenly, NC dump station in the TA
I"ve spent many nights in the truck stop at Kenly NC; I didn"t realize they had a dump; next time I"m there I"ll check it out.
thanks

My wife and I have been professional truck drivers for the last 10 years. As for the TA truck stops, while they do usually have some rv parking, most do not support overnight parking. Flying j has beem the most rv friendly of all but since their merger with Pilot last year, the j is becomming less friendly to rv's. They started charging 10.00 dor the rv dump and the fuel discounts have all but gone. Most of the facilities at the J have switched to pilot services. I Still own 1 big truck and have a couple driving for me but I prefer they do not use pilot facilities. Pilot wants you to fuel and leave. Just my 2c on the subject, however, I must say that my opinion has been formed more as a truck driver than an RVer.

With the RV Card dumping is $5.
Fuel discounts is 3¢ for diesel at the Pilot/Flying J stations now. Which is 2¢ more then it use to be, under Flying J.
Plus you still get cash price(usually 6¢ off) with the RV card using a CC.

What part of that is less friendly to RVers then the old Flying J?

They didn't merge as Flying J went bankrupt and Pilot bought most of their stations but not all.

Your drivers can get a Professional Drivers Card and save $7 on a dump($2 cheaper then a RV) plus other benefits.
