Where to buy fuel in south Tucson

[klenger]

I just moved to Tucson and am wondering where I should buy fuel. I will be running out soon, so I'd better start looking. I work near the airport and live near Broadway and Craycroft.

Tucson Fuel

Used to have a terminal in Tucson, and used TTT, Tucson Truck Terminal for my pickup fuel. Its on I-10 south. It was very busy and I never had a problem with quality. (If they are still there) There are several Pacific Pride Card Lock fuel stops in Tucson, and you can start an account to use their system. They are al over the west.

Thanks for the response. After some searching before your response, I found the TTT truck stop and checked their prices. They had tow prices for diesel fuel. One was for big trucks and was priced about $0. 10 / gal more than the fuel for small vehicles. Is this the case for all of AZ? I asked inside, and the told me the big truck pay more taxes. That seems kind of unfair as they already pay more in taxes since they use more fuel.

Not that I would wish higher taxes on anyone but big rigs cause more damage to roadways due to their weight and should pay more. Of course this in a perfect world where fuel tax is used to maintain roads and Social Security Taxes aren't used to buy $600 Pentagon toilet seats.

In Arizona, big-rigs have to pay 9 cents more than we do.

The only time I fueled at TTT, in my Peterbilt, it was full service, someone came out and pumped the fuel and washed the windows for me. That may explain part of why their prices are a dime higher, too.

Not only do we pay more for fuel, but the registration is $2600 a year, and the fed $500 heavy use tax for tractor only.
