    Eh, I like my shower before bed and don't even mind paying for it if I have to. I never waste money on hotel rooms but #### if I am sleeping in a truck all grubby.

    Carry a 5 gallon bucket/lid, shower curtains, and a long wide plastic container. I just did it today. I’m not the first. There are a few videos on YouTube with a better setup than mine. Also, get yourself an electric kettle. I used 3 gallons and 1.7 liters of boiling water. You can get everything at Wally.

    The best solution is apparently an actual shower inside your truck. Look at my comment above yours. By the way, this thread is about 3 months old.

    I have used epic wipes. I have it in my truck now. actual shower is much better but this wipes are good one and they clean good. it's little expensive.
