ASHLAND, Ky., May 25, 2004 -- TravMatix(TM), the most innovative automobile travel site on the Internet, has just gotten better. Today, just in time for the summer driving season, the website is launching its latest feature, TravMatix Fuel, which for the first time enables Internet users to compare gas prices anywhere and save money on every fill-up. This unique new feature developed with and powered by MobileGates' Fuel Mobile, is now available at http://www.travmatix.com/ .

TravMatix Fuel is the first(NOT TRUE! ed.) comprehensive way for Internet users to search and compare gas prices anywhere in the USA, including the subscriber's local area. TravMatix Fuel subscribers have the option of searching for prices by Zip Code or City/State. In addition, a subscriber may select personal preferences in regards to the grade and specific brand names of gasoline. Search results are shown with a map designating the general location of the station and a list of addresses for those stations sorted by price, cheapest to most expensive. Users can now know before they leave the house where the cheapest gas prices are.

Never before has this kind of comprehensive information been made available to automobile travelers using the Internet. Many auto travelers have noticed price variations of at least 5 cents per gallon for stations located only a few blocks apart, and in some metro areas the difference has been as great as 30 cents per gallon. Utilizing TravMatix Fuel can provide substantial savings, especially for families having two or three cars, and would quickly pay for itself.

TravMatix Fuel is a subscription-based service with unlimited yearly access for $19.95, or may be bundled with TravMatix Trip for $34.95.
