    A few months ago, I was at the Calgary Flying J. It was 3:30 in the morning local time. I run 2 hours ahead. I was inside to get a shower when a guy came in to get fuel. Left the truck running in the fuel lane and then got a shower. When I came out, the truck was still there running and he was in the shower.

    Granted, all of the other pumps were open, but really?

    Well, at least we know it's not just a "south of the border" affliction, eh?

    The only truckstop I've been too recently that did that was the T/A in Mt. Vernon, MO.

    I never get fuel receipts, but I've fueled at several TA/Petro's that would print a receipt at the pump. I thin you can also go in to the road king kiosk and print them.

    Maybe he thinks reverse will cut down on his out of route miles.
