Pros and cons of Truck & RV Fuel Stations app for iPhone and iPad
Truck & RV Fuel Stations app good for
I would have given 5 stars if the station description for RVs mentioned potable/non-potable water. This is very important to us when dumping. Most places dont have cleaning drinking water to replenish our supply. Thx for this app! I found it through the TA Petro website.
Recently travel across the Midwest to Montana with a 5th wheel trailer. Used the app to identify possible fuelling stops. Allowed us to manage our fuelling preferences (T/A stations), with descriptions of services, photos and mileage to location. Made our trip much easier with no stress
Some bad moments
First time I used it in a metropolitan area closest gas station is 173 miles. The next time I used it was also in a metropolitan area and you couldnt even find any thing close.
So far its working great!
EZ to use. EZ to read!
Helps to know the distance to the next fueling station. No guess work!
On the road a lot in areas Im not familiar with. Feel confident that I can pull into stations made specifically for large loads. Really like being able to get info by touching the pin - no deep research while on the road!
Just loaded it and checked pilot and Flying J. There are 2 Flying Js in the general area I live. It only showed one. Checked another location I am familiar with, and again a Pilot was not reflected. It is a waste of 99 cents.
We bought this app for our RV trip. When we use Apple maps, we can find travel plazas if we search by name- Loves, Flying J, etc. but the search mechanism on this app shows me "no results" every time. Must be a bug, but this app has been totally useless to us on this trip. I highly recommend iExit instead
Seems to work really well.
Its been very helpful during our summer travels.
The little balloons on the map is nice but where are the prices ? Im driving 80000 lbs down the road and you really want me to take my eyes off the road to look at a web site list for fuel prices ? What planet are from !
