Message:: [QUOTE="Skogie, post: 91898, member: 3916"]The ABSOLUTE worst shower is at the 49'r in Sacramento, CA. To qualify to get a shower you first must purchase 75 Gal. of fuel.  This also qualfies you to 24 hr. free parking.   Then when you present your fuel receipt to get a shower they charge you $2.00.  Otherwise the charge is $10.00.   You must give them $10 to get the key to the shower and you get $8.00 change back afterwards. You are handed a thread-bare towel and washcloth that is so thin you can see the fingerprints on your hand through them.  They do not supply a bar of soap nor is there a soap dispenser in the shower. The shower itself is moldy and smells bad. The hot water temperature is a maximum of 85 degrees.  Not even skin temperature.   Shaving is a chore at that temperature.    You shower quickly as it is not very comfortable at 85 degrees.  I like it around skin temp. of 90 degrees or higher. The food is very poor quality and priced like a 4 star Michelin restaurant. The clerks at the fuel desk and waitresses seem to act like they are doing you a favor to give you any service. I avoid the 49'r like the plague.  Planning my arrival to a pick up or deliver in such a way that I purchase fuel/food/shower elsewhere. Which is hard to do sometimes, but can be done with planning.[/QUOTE]
