      I quit using this app a while ago. Got tired of the company saying you can get 25 cents back on every gallon (impossible to do around me, nobody offers that level of discount), that you can cash out at "any" time (any time you have over $10 in rewards is not any time), and that you can make $200 per month (you have to buy a LOT of gas to get that). Can't stand companies that lie to me, so I kicked them to the curb. Use it if you want, but I will have nothing to do with them.

      @@richardl4556 Yeah there's not many around me that offer it as well. I'm sure as it grows in the future it'll hit wayy more areas. I'm stuck up in the corner in Maine 🇺🇸 lol so to get to a fuel ⛽ station that allows this.. I gotta drive over an hour. If I'm up that way, I'll try it. But sadly won't be able to use it for everyday fuel. Cool concept tho!

    Paul, at the 7 minute mark you made a hugh mistake, that fortunately you got away with. You did a kinetic pull on a short drop hitch. That is how people get hurt or killed. Regardless of how simple a pull seems, you should away pull from proper recovery points. The main reason for this, you have tons of followers, they are going to follow what you do. Please lead by example. Love you youtube channel. You guys rock. Can't wait to be able to stop by.
