    Sure do. I'm out on an average of four weeks at a time. Right now nearly six. Twice in the last month I've been at a nice motel. With summer here again, I'll be looking for a swimming pool at the next one.

    There's an app for that, you know. It's called KeyRing.

    I get motels if it's within my budget. If I'm out for weeks then I'll get a reset in the motel. I rent rooms more often during football season though

    I never sleep in the truck, even when on multi-day trips. I don't even keep bedding in the truck anymore. The hotel life isn't bad.

    Hotel vs Fuel and the havoc idling wreaks on emissions engines .... Hotel for the win whenever possible.
