    Apparently they don't give shower credit if you get service done on your truck/trailer.
    Had oil change and didn't get shower credit. At $300 least they could do is give me shower #### suckers.

    They stopped that a couple years ago. I had a tire plugged at a petro. Shop manager said they have no way to add one if they wanted to.

    Then stop using them. TA is probably the worst chain out there

    I don't fuel at any of the big chains due to the high prices. So, I just pay for the shower out of pocket.

    If you run a newer Freightliner fleet, TA is a good place to utilize for lots or repair and maintenance tasks. We do 90% of our maintenance in house but use TA/Petro for oil changes and tire repairs when we’re nowhere near the barn. Never had any issues with them. But I agree a shower credit should be issued with any single shop work over $200

    You're not saving anything @ $15/shower...Unless you only shower 1-2 times a week?

    Some smaller truck stops do offer shower and even have rewards card. IE Coffee Cup in SD/ND/WY have showers that don't expire. I have like 7 or 8 shower credits on the card
