    Should I or ?

    Check D.O.T. specs on sleepers before going to that expense . You must be able to access the driving area from the sleeper and meet a lot of other requirements ( vents , restraints , etc. ) for it to be D.O.T. legal .

    My error . Thank you OntarioVan Man for having me check back on it . The sign says you get credits with a 25 gallon minimum but showers still require a 50 gallon purchase .

    25 gallon shower credit at Pilot

    I know last week I saw a new sign at the Pilot at exit 164 on I-75 in Findlay , OH and it definitely said 25 gallons . It was hanging over the fuel desk with prices for other services . Well , it won't be the first time Pilot reneged on an offer .

    Pilot Not Taking Visa /MC !

    I read of a company that sets up an account that allows the customer to swipe his driver's license and the money is debited from his checking account . Retailers like it because fees are lower than with credit cards .

    Whose bright idea was it?

    If I remember correctly this sign is on I-75 near Toledo . "Resume Legal Speed " What are you supposed to be doing before you resume legal speed ? And be VERY careful driving through the I-94 construction in Michigan . Those people don't have a clue what YIELD means and act like you are...

    I've seen some pretty pathetic Pilots . One of them in KY had a barstool in the shower room . Ever try putting your boots on while sitting on a barstool ?
