    Does SNI allow you to pay for truck washes with your EFS card?

    No you get one or 2 washes a year. After your truck gets a pm. Usually it has to b from a OC that doesn't have a truck wash. That's why I try to do mine at Carlisle or Atlanta.

    I never even get to an OC. My windows need a good blasting. The squeegee at the truck stop doesn't cut it. I can always climb up there with some Windex, but I'd like my truck to look decent when rolling through a scale.

    Schneider trucks are allergic to soap.

    U can pay for a wash with your own money. Nothing is stopping you from doing it. I wash mine once a quarter. Its a tax write off at end of year.

    I may do that after a while. Truck washes are a bit expensive and I have some bills to catch up on.

    get with DBL. Benn told several different things. You are supposed to be able to at minimum get one at Blue Beacon after you get a B PM done. Some guys have said thier DBL was willing to after each PM regardless of which one it was. Those auto washes at the OC's arent much better than a hard driving rain at speed. Waste of water and electric if you ask me. Just worthless, unless you get a new truck and have the ability to get one done at an OC regularly.
