    I have been through Wendover countless times, I have come out here to gamble, or have just passed through, but I usually do not stop here while driving because since it is so close to home, I am either on my way out or on my way in, in this case the latter but am out of driving time so I stopped, I had heard about the free showers and the laundry for a buck...I think, so I went in and had a shower, they are clean, and they have more showers than most truckstops I have seen, the staff is friendly, they have a little C store, they sale more like sundries. You can get a free cup of coffee if you use their styrofoam 12 oz cups, or if you take a thermos, it is relatively inexpensive to fill...I will double check the price when I go back in. But it is actually a decent place with lots of parking and shuttles to the casinos if you choose to do that.

    You can also get two for one vouchers for the casino buffet across the street too.

    :biggrin_2559: The only bad thing was, yes after getting and using the voucher for a half priced buffet, I walked to the nearest slot machine and spent $60. So my cheap meal that day cost $70 + tax, oh well.

    Most of these replies exhibit all too well why truckers are stereotyped as fat, unhealthy rolling heart attacks. Get a set up and cook your own food. The buffets and value menus will always be there...

    Can't agree with you, the post was to give kudos to a stop I think deserves it, A buffet is nice, and so is having a handy place to get a quick bite. I have a cooler, I make sandwiches and the like. Everyone here is stating simply, there are places to eat besides your truck. As a matter of fact I grabbed a sandwich, no fries and no drink from McDonalds, and another driver there and he was about as fit as I have seen, and he got a number 1 and super sized it.
