Best Swift Shop: Where and Why?

Menasha.

 

Saw a couple of posts regarding troubles getting fluids like oil and coolant from these terminals. Quick tip-- you can buy those same fluids and scan them in with your trip and be reimbursed.

If you're parked at Ontario TA East or West where they want you to show $20 bucks worth of receipts or pony up the $20 bucks upon departure, just go in and buy a $17 dollar jug of oil and a burger and fries. Boom over $20 bucks right there. Scan the oil receipt in and Swift just paid for your parking lol.

Was in a terminal shop couple weeks ago, mm I'll say it is between the biggest little city in America and Mile High City.. Well pulled in to get a trailer inspection, got my dog out and locked the door out of habit. Shop guy calls me over and very sternly tells me to not lock my truck in 'his' shop. "What's the magic word?"

 

If you would ask my grand-daughter she would tell you point blank, "Abra cadabra".

 

Right on the money
Decatur sux - so does Walt.
Been in the shop a few times there
One time, slept in the tire lane - first in line.
5 hrs to change 1 flat.
They all shuffled around trying to look like they were doing something,
while doing *nothing*

And so many shops with short better-than-banker-hours.

Denver, Memphis and Edwardsville are good.

 

You don't even have to do that ... just wave some reciepts at the guard, they don't actually check them. Plus there's no gate anyway. I wrote no charge per manager on the ticket, handed it to the guard and just drove out.

 

I lost my little ticket once, the guy wanted me to pay him $100 bucks to get out the gate. This was just after I had bought over $400 bucks worth of fuel but didn't go in and get the receipt for that either.

Normally I would do something simple like windshield wipers but because the truck is still under warranty, it's best to leave stuff like that up to the professionals.
