This is in regards to TA as a whole. The whole corporation, and (almost) every one of their "truckstops". You are an embarrassment. And we all know you have no shame and could care less for the majority of your clientele. Truck drivers. Many of your "Travelcenters" are downright disgusting. And not from regular west and tear or some of the pigs that stroll in and out. We get that. But just run down and nasty. Fix the ###### bathrooms for one. The doors don't close and some that do won't lock. The soap is always run dry. The showers at some are decent, and some..... Oh. My. God. Really? Your fast food joints charge well over the national average. But you know that already don't you? Not to mention most not being open 24 hours (you do remember what business you're in, correct?)
You've found a new way to nickle and dime us too. Many sites charge for parking, and you have that reserved parking too that is probably the worst parking in any truck stop. Just because its close to the building doesn't mean it's good. $13 dollars for one of your nasty showers doesn't suprise me either. Anything to suck the last few bucks out.
How about training your associates in customer service instead of looking annoyed when we need them to do, oh, I don't know. Their jobs? Here's one you nasty pigs. Those breakfast sandwiches. Some are left sitting for 14 hours. That's right. And you still try and sell them. I'm glad to say I'll never spend another dime in a TA again.

I went to a few truck stops before I became a driver.
I knew what I was in for.
You should've known, too. -
Ougigoug, joseph1135, DocWatson and 5 others Thank this.

Incorrect sir, I meant that he shouldn't be surprised.
Realistically, the focus on what needs to change in trucking as far as priorities go: truck stops ought not to shine as brightly on the radar.
Assumptions making people into things an such... -
I stopped using TA's several years ago. Only go there now if there's no other choice.

Joseph what exactly happened to make you have so mich animosity towards TA?
-
actually they are no better or worse as a whole over anyplace else
ty TA for reserve parking in Carlisle at 10 pm
the Petro in Perrysburg is the nicest of the 5 TS's there
the old Te KHI in Battle Creek is all bright and new
It is disingenuous to lump all of them in the same boat as it is
to say all drivers are 400 lb pigsDoneYourWay Thanks this. -
i was surprised to spend $13 for a shower today. my last 2 were loves points. and home.
$10 from $7. now we're up to 13. that's double the price in 2 years.
inflation goes up when the economy works. and goes up even higher when the economy sucks. while wages are lower.
won't be long now before the world gets so expensive that it won't make sense to go to work anymore. you can't afford to get out of bed. -
$13 is a fair price for a shower. Consider a discount $39 dollar cheap hotel room, 33% of that is factoring in the shower and toilet and electric facilities of the room. Red Roof at $50 bucks $13 bucks is about 25% of the total. Really want to reduce that $13 dollar shower? Only take a shower once every 168 hours you're paying just $0.61 cents for it lol.
DoneYourWay Thanks this.
