I have an old trick I used while boating. (rather large boat that was none to nice on the fuel bill)
I stach money on a debit card...then travel...put the diesel in.......get the receipt.....stick it in my pocket..and NEVER LOOK AT IT>.or the PUMP while fueling. I DON"T WANT TO KNOW...
put the receipt in a folder........go where I want...get home....and hope we came out alive on costs!!! well..something like that. When that pump is a pumping..don't look...just pay!! ruins my trip. But then again, I had the experience of a boat that could suck gas thru like it was water.
I get depressed easily!!

Coming full circle, I could not agree with you more. That, as previously stated, is why I stay clear of Pilot and Flying J. They want me to estimate my purchase before I pump where Loves and TA do not. I don't want to think about the fuel until the trip is over. I will worry about it then.
As far as motorcycles go, I have had 10 Harley's (between DW and I), 1 BMW, two Honda's, I Kawasaki dirt bike, and a Zundap in the past 45 years. I put about 350,000 miles on those machines and just felt it was time to enjoy something else for a while.
