    I prefer leaving the truck in the yard. That's when I write up whatever needs to be fixed. I like having my car when I go home.

    I do that if it's something major, or try to time it that way, but most of the time I like it to be at home. I knew it would only be a little while this time because they weren't busy, so it was okay. Besides, I got that dang grease out before it had time to set. Last time just snuck up on me with the codes. And it did need a pm. Was trying to wait but truck didn't see it that way. Still managed a great check even with a 34 in there. Needed one anyway. Hours were awful.

    I know the feeling. Mine wasn't nearly as messy but as soon as I got back in the truck I knew someone had been in there moving stuff around.

    Wish I didn't know I am actually aching this morning. Haven't done that much physical activity since I quit my last job in March.

    Hahaha... it's a job I'm sure. I'll wait til the auto-wash gets built. And if it's not an auto, then my truck still isn't going to get washed. It's either one extreme or the other here. Like me, who never washes it to let's say a particular trainer who gets his truck washed regularly. Nothing wrong with it. I want to wash mine. Just don't have the blue beacon credits for it. Another thing I miss about Prime. I got a beacon truck wash once a month, and 2 a month in the winter time plus, got to go thru the auto-wash every time I hit the yard.

    Looks like all the external walls are close to being completed. It will be interesting to see it when done.

    I should have a BB credit from the PM I had done a couple weeks ago, but not sure how it works. If I have to pay up front then get reimbursed later then I am not likely to use it at all.

    Pull up to the bay, or call ahead if needed, and just verify that there is a credit on your truck. They will see it on the account/truck if it's there and wash your truck. Be ready to be asked about upgrades not covered by the basic wash.
     
    Redtwin Thanks this.
