But, after sales tax and inconvenience added in, 2.99 a gallon at the truck stop is best.

Anyway, around here it is $3.99 a gallon at the truck stops - and the TSD card doesn't get me a discount on that. When you add it as infrequently as I do, it isn't an inconvenience at all to buy it at Rural King.

Dang !!! I guess you drive and tow a LOT more than me, so your usage would be higher. I rarely add DEF to my truck. My buddy has a 2018 and he and I seem to need it way less than our friend with a 2021 King Ranch.

Yeah, if I didn't use any more than you do I wouldn't sweat going a little out of the way to buy those jugs either.

They have quite a few locations in Texas, not all are 2.99, some as high as 3.49.
But, when I go in there, I fill my DEF tank, plus I refill a 2.5 gal jug.

$23 shipping kills the deal. Regional prices are not worth posting. Deleting is cheaper than shipping in the long run.

And, regional prices ARE worth posting because it might be convenient to many on here, this is not just a forum dedicated to your personal interests.

Texas is quite a trip to save a couple $$ on DEF. LOL. Since DEF is pretty much the same price regardless where I go around here, I go a few minutes out of my way to fill Diesel when I need Def. I don't use the boxed stuff, never did.
