I also use CAA. It's a bit of a weird game as the bigger FBOs jack up the Jet-A price, but "nobody pays retail" since all the jet guys have fuel cards. Retail Jet-A at smaller airports can be lower than the CAA price at a larger airport. But at KTUS the last couple of days I got the CAA price on 26g and no ramp fee while the plane was there for two nights.
At KELP I saved $1.50 on fuel, then got a hangar for just $55 and no "security" fee, about half the cost of a hangar at KTRM.
