    Another reason why a aux tank is important is because with fuel prices so crazy, you can take advantage of filling up 100+ gallons in a area where fuel is cheaper. Instead of being stuck filling up where your 30 gallon tank goes empty.

    What up Bennii! Thank you for your advice to us beginners to the Business. I came across a Gentleman yesterday at a Walmart Parking Lot in Portsmouth, Virginia,. Who mentioned he was one of your followers and followed you and your advice. He mentioned he was from Ohio and shared his beginners experience with me, which helped me with a decision I was indecisive about. One thing he was adamant about was to watch your videos and by chance, I already was a subscriber to your videos also. Thank you to you and the Gentleman from Ohio in.the Green Dodge Ram. I appreciate your advice and videos. Good Fortune and Ride Safe.

    RTS in my area gives maybe .01 a gallon discount a gallon and charges .50 each time you swipe for a “usage fee” 😂 I get on 100 gallons .50 cents is .50 cents but top that on a 6.00 a month usage fee 🤷🏽‍♂️ Also if you factoring loads you’re already 1-3 months behind the next guy in the game…

      They're all different. I've seen a guy in the rest area pumping his from the 100gal to his main tank. I'm not sure how legal that is to do in a rest area, but he was doing it. Also some of the ones that work like that don't have an auto shut off when your full. It'll keep pumping and overflow!!
