    That's what I told the clerk and the other driver, but both say that's not the case now. I wouldn't be surprised if this turns out like the TA program--nobody knows how it really is, even the clerks, and they don't particularly care.

    WORST motels

    Ever stop at a motel that made you go, "Are you kidding? How are you still in business?" I have a couple in mind. One, the Motel 6 in Terre Haute, IN. Spent a month there one week while the transmission was being rebuilt. Bugs...general filth...the steep decline in my instinct of...

    I tell you, some of these motels must think they're national treasures. I was in Fargo ND a couple weeks ago, looking for a motel for a night because it was in the mid 90s and I was tired of burning fuel and not even keeping that cool doing it. I called around, and pretty much every room up...
