    My line to these feet washing POS is usually “maybe in the 3rd world country you come from that’s acceptable, not here in this country it isn’t.” I’m not PC and have no ability to not speak my mind.

    A friend said he walked in and the guy has his pants on the floor washing out his crack

    This is one of many reasons I will just burn off a “Free” shower credit Vs the community cesspool

    I have never parked at a pumps and Ive pulled A-trains plenty. Fortunately I rarely ever have to fuel at truck stop….i see the usual suspects are usually plugging up the lanes….while inside having a bath in the sink

    Ironically the fuel pumps are not even busy while he shoots his video.

    Sign on door at fuel island at Little America in WY states your truck will be booted if on island longer than 15 min. Boots are in the window as you walk in

    I do exactly the same. I have unlimited daily showers with my loves points, and if there's an open shower on the App, and I need to go- I book one. That way there's no line ever. The toilet and hand sink are much more clean than the community sink. I get my privacy- and I can splash some water in my face without having to worry about some random dudes pubes coming along for the ride. This works out especially well at super busy locations that tend to be extra nasty...
    And I never leave a mess for the employees who come in after me, so I've never got a complaint. Loves doesn't mind because my truck is pumping over $5k a month on diesel and Def

    Never got the sink thing. Plenty of other options the van-lifers and campers use that keep them away from the sinks. Some people have never heard of wet-wipes and a hobo-shower.

    When I ran long, Canada east coast to texas and the carolinas, I always tried to fuel and stay at the rural truck stops, the closer to cities, the nastier they get.
    I also had permanent "shower power" and would always burn a shower to get my own room. It just keeps getting better out here. I can hardly wait to retire...
