EFS card location route tool

So with the last EFS site update I lost the route/price tool that I really liked. I have been using the open roads app but last night found that the original EFS site still is in use now and it has the price/route locator tool. It takes your current location and your end location, plans route and locates all fuel providers along route. Also it highlights cheapest price along the way in green and when you drive past that station it shows the next lowest priced station in green and so on till you reach your destination. It does this in seconds without having to plan out very much. So glad to find it again. On the location page in tools the top left triangle is the price locator tool. After it shows your location you must scroll down unprompted to find the destination location. See attached screen shots for further description.

That's pretty cool Scott!  I had the TSD logistics app for my EFS card, but not this.

I will also comment that so far, in my local area, Sams Club prices have been the cheapest, even lower than the EFS prices.  Your image showing the Las Vegas stations shows 3.837 on the South side of town.  Sams Club at Craig/I-15 is at 3.659 today.  If you have a membership, it saves some coin.

Wish Sams club at serine had diesel. I just fueled at RR pass last week at $3.81 and today its $3.91. Good to know

Scott, that is a nice tool!  I have a TSD Open Roads card, got it from the sticky above. EFS is a competitor of TSD? Are the prices different between the two? Or can my TSD account be used with the tool above?

They use the same card so i would assume no. When the app changed last time it went to the open roads and I whined because of the loss of the mapping tool, but now its found b^.^d

Before TSD offered their own "Open Roads" app, all we had was the EFS app.  I still use the EFS app over the Open Roads app for this type of route planning.  I just plug in my destination and plan my stops around the lowest price points enroute.  Not sure why TSD didn't incorporate this into their app.
