    I have never stayed at a Hotel/Motel.

    Not like I'd get any sleep anyway.
    I can't even sleep for s&^% at home.

    TA in Laredo gets long lines for the showers at certain times of the day. Part of it, I suspect, are people using shower credits because the bathrooms are overwhelmed with bus traffic.

    Yeah, it is the same for me and it was the new program that caused the wait. It is starting to catch up at Pilot and J, Have had wait times at places the last three days I did not before.

    They are giving away more showers but did not add any more shower capacity. A shower credit has a ton of less value if I have to wait 20 minutes to an hour to use it.

    Haven't run into problems at most of the J's. Pilot's are always hit or miss depending on which one you go to.

    Loves showers suck, loves is still stuck in the old days with keys at counter, take a number, and 5 showers on average per location. Loves get with the program, I do not love you at all.

    I use my pilot credits in this manner to freshen up, and especially when a bus is there!

    The new system is retarded.
    Haven't really noticed it affected wait time for ME yet.


    So while I get 1 Free Shower a day.
    I'm also still earning showers.

    The Shower Total won't increase every day (unless you fuel).
    You get 1 Free One/Day use it or loose it.
