Drivers steer clear

WOW
I was in Wildwood Florida got my truck serviced and went next door to check on a wash.

All the employees were standing around with hands in pocket (was a chilly morning) when I asked for a price of a wash. I was told $50 - $60. I have been getting my truck washed lately for about $25 - $35, and a pretty good job at that. When I mentioned what I was use to paying it turned ugly. I was told to suck something and as I walked away the typical "scummy male" cat calls and very vulgar comments were shouted in my direction.:eek:

When I got back to the TA where my truck was being serviced I spoke with the service manager and asked him if he knew the owner or manager of the Truck wash. The TA service manager told me that it would be a waste of my time. He has people on a daily basis come in with such experiences with the truck wash in Wildwood. He gave me directions on where I could get one for the lower price I have been paying. Though I will just wait and do it at home.

Money is coming in a lot slower, and even these rude men at the Wildwood Truck wash were not busy. But when I go to spend money on my truck or anything for that matter, I shop around a little harder to know that I am paying what the industry is getting and not more.

If you are in the area and really need a truck wash there is a RV size do it yourself place just east of the truck stop. You can ask the people in the service department at TA.

Don't pay more than you have to.;)

Yes I was not happy to say the least it was a yucky way to start my day.
I wish I would have consulted with the TA Mngr before I went over there.

I did leave a couple reviews on google search and City search so I feel a little better.

;D

[Your not the only one:

Last Spring asked how long it would be and $ to polish all the alum? Was told I would be out by 2PM. At 7PM I was doing the final finish myself.

Seems as though no it is fact I take that back: The staff kept dissipearing for half hour breaks and when they returned less and less would get done, going out to cook there stuff and do what ever with it.

Job was piss poor, thank God I refused the first price and set my own price as I over paid even with the bargin price. Go anywhere except at the truck wash closest to 75 on the NW corner, Drugs and Alchol were in my vision come 12PM until I left.

I have never had a good experience in Wildwood FL. I had my truck washed there and they did a poor job and didn't care what I thought about it. I have spent the night in the TA and was awakened by lot lizzards several times during the night. When I complained at the fuel desk they just shrugged. I just don't stay in Wildwood at all any more. It's worth the investment to drive a little further.
