Taking A Shower On The Road

It's still great entertainment iin an otherwise boring lazy day.

I have a lot of free time right now, maybe I should catch up, LOL.

From Mik D's post, it looks like a shower for every 100 gallons, so at 7 mpg, you would earn a shower every 700 miles. So you could earn a shower every other day at least. I'm sure you would end up skipping one or two a week anyway, due to schedule restraints, or not making it to a TS, so basically, after a week or two, you would probably never have to pay for a shower, like G-Town said. And get a lot of free drinks as well. :)

you get a shower every 60 gals at TA PETRO Flying J Loves. 75 gals at AMBEST 25 gals at Sapp Bros.

if you buy 1000 gals in one month you get "shower power"at pilot/FJ and "diamond status" at Loves. gives you a free shower every day

Pilot, flying j, and Loves give you a free shower credit after 50 gallons or more. Fueling 100 gallons in one stop doesn't give you two credits however. You still get just the one credit. And an unused credit expires after 10 days. TA gives a credit after 60 gallons or more, and it expires after 12 days.

Additionally, fueling 1000 gallons or more at a particular chain within 30 days will earn you unlimited showers, or at least a free shower per day for a month. I'm almost always in that category, so showers are never a concern. I always have more credits than I can use.

Lastly, a credit is good for a "team" shower. Meaning you and your team driver or passenger each get a separate shower at the cost of only one credit. So my wife gets her own shower when we stop even though she doesn't drive.

To date, I've never had to pay for a shower.

Oh...i know what was funny..trying to explain teaming to her. she couldnt undersrand how the truck was still rolling during a drivers 10 hour break.

its a team, the truck is moving and one driver sleeps. one drivers one sleeps. her response was "But you have to stop for a 10 hour break, so i dont understand what you mean"

Obviously I type too slow. Rainy beat me to it lol

Rainy’s pillows...

Hey, i have frilly pillows and made curtains for my truck. I cut them from my flat sheets I dont use. lol Then velcroed them and even have tie backs. Im a nester, what can i say.

Yes, but you didn’t worry about the gingerbread until you actually became a competent truck driver. You were never a pretender Rainy.
