25 gallon shower credit at Pilot

Crazynuff · Jul 28, 2007

I don't know when this started . I just noticed the sign today . Now you get a free shower credit when you purchase 25 gallons of fuel at Pilot .

Some maybe, You can't get a shower for 200 gallons at the one in Suffolk, VA. They took the showers outa the place, and can only park for 4 hours then they run you out. Must be a disjoint in the chain or something.

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 ?

It's about time!

Van Drivers,

Please keep sending those emails and letters to the Fuel Stop Operators (Pilot, Love's, Hess, TA, etc.) and encourage them to compete with the "J" by offering an accumulative fuel credits for showers program.

Ever notice..The J especially when the day staff comes on at 7am they always close one restroom for cleaning the the other...Man thats busy time The wait for a good seat really puts the pressure on !!! I asked a manager bout this and the conversation was to say limited..

Call Corporate, if no satisfaction with Management: They are curious what we really think in the Ivory Buildings, not at the Stops themselves...

I just wish there were shelves in the showers. I hate setting all my shampoo ect.. on the floor. But, I guess this is just a girl complaint

How about buying one of those plastic holders that hang over the shower head and carry it with you ?

Wheres these Pilots and 25 gallon showers? been to 2 since yesterday Beaverdams Oh and E22a Porter Ind. niether manager knew anything about it...showed me new signs showers dropped from 75G's to 50 G's...Someone blow smoke out our proverbual butt?

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 .

Crazynuff · Aug 4, 2007

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 .

Falligator · Aug 6, 2007

Do you get the 25 gallon credit on Regular Unleaded or just on Diesel? Since the Flying J offers it on both.

OntarioVanMan · Aug 6, 2007

At Pilot you don't get either right now....it seems an error in communications has befallen us....

I asked about this at several pilots, seems you still have to get 50 gal. but if you can show your reciepts for 50 gallons in the same week, they will give you a shower.

Fact is that unless the fuel desk operator is in a bad mood, or a shower nazi, you can usually ask for a shower and explain that you only have a 30 gallon fuel tank, they will give it to you (usually).
