    • If you are a Sam's member, they have a really good credit card rebate program for gas purchases, so not only do you get the cheaper prices at Sam's you also get 5% back on your gas purchases there AND your gas purchases at most other non-Sam's gas stations as well too.  Costco has a similar deal and I have their card. I get $400 cash back on that every year and 50% of that rebate is just on gas spend.  Because we're driving more this year, I'm already at $147 in rebates for 2025 and my April statement hasn't even closed yet.  Even if you never go to a Sam's to shop, it might be worth it to get the Plus membership and their Mastercard now that you have the Navigator.  
    • Something like this is cute and all, but it needs to be like sub-20k here. This could replace the former Sonic, Fiesta, and Fits of the US. Obviously, it won't though. 
    • I'm pretty obsessive over fuel prices and locations, as well. I just don't quite have the options somebody living where you live has. There's only one Costco in the STL area that I'm aware of and it certainly is not in a location I'd get a membership for. There are a couple different Sam's Clubs that are much closer to me.  I don't have a spreadsheet of fuel prices, but I do record every single fill up for my last four vehicles, 2013 Escape (24.87 lifetime average over 24,611 miles), 2016 Focus(32.5lifetime average over 26,590 miles), 2016 Lincoln MKC (22.6 lifetime average over 53,422 miles) and now my 2017 Navigator (16.8 mpg over 3341 miles).
