    Unless you can choose which TS to Fuel at.
    Or like paying for showers I don't think it really matters.

    The ones I get for free for fueling. Usually Pilot/Flying J. I do, however, make it a point to stop at Little America.

    In good weather, why not just hang a couple of sheets of something between the tractor bat wings and the trailer and use one of those sun shower things on the catwalk?

    The pilot bathroom sink, because I don't have time to take a 10 minute shower in an actual shower room

    Little Americas and some of the AmBest. Russell's and Sky City come to mind.

    Most of the big 3 chains may be disinfected but could use a good pressure washing to get rid of the dirt crusted into the grout and corners.

    Could you perhaps use the showers during your 10 hour break?
