How to use Fuel Finder
⛽ Finding cheap fuel
Type a ZIP code, city, or address and hit Search — or allow location access and the app finds stations around you automatically. Prices come live from GasBuddy and refresh about every 30 minutes. The list shows the cheapest first, with a CHEAPEST badge, how far each station is, and how old the price is.
📍 GPS & the map
When location is allowed, a blue dot marks where you are. Browsers only allow GPS on the secure address — use https://ff.corenet.systems. Tap any station in the list or on the map to see all its prices.
⭐ Best pick
The blue card at the top recommends the station that's actually cheapest for the drive: pump price plus the fuel you'd burn getting there and back. A rock-bottom price 15 miles away often loses to a close runner-up. Tap Directions to navigate there.
🚗 Your truck
Set your year, make, model, and engine. The app then searches the right fuel automatically (diesel trucks search diesel, premium engines search premium) and shows cost per 100 miles next to each price. Heavy-duty trucks (F250/F350, Silverado HD, Ram HD) are included with estimated MPG — or use manual entry and type your own real-world MPG. Sign in and your truck follows you to any device.
🗺️ Route planner
- Enter a destination, your full-tank range in miles, and how much fuel you have now.
- The app simulates your fuel gauge along the route and flags where you'll need fuel.
- Each stop zone shows the 3 best-value stations — tap + Add stop to route through one.
- Use Open in Google Maps / Apple Maps to navigate the whole trip, stops included.
💲 Fixing a wrong price
Spot a price that's off? Tap the station and Suggest the right one (sign-in required). A suggestion goes live once 4 people confirm it or an admin approves it — until then it shows as pending with a Confirm button for others. This keeps the listed prices trustworthy.
