Marshall Texas has those no welcome signs but I've been seeing trucks parked there for the past year.
Atlanta gets my business.
Marshall would be a much easier in and out though... -
Lol I'm an idiot.... Finish the article before you post.
Chalk that up as a first impression post. -
Like the idea of expanding the tuck parking, hit a few Wally worlds lately that had the seperate truck parking and it made me a lot more comfortable taking my time in the store (and actually spending quite a bit more money at that.)
would i I prefer to hit a Costco or Safeway? Yeah. But I also don't feel like taking a cab to a tow yard.Trucker61016 Thanks this. -
National Truck Ban @ Walmart; i guess i'll take the wait n see approach.

If truckers (and RV'ers from what I seen) would respect the property more by not littering or parking like idiots....this would most likely be less of an issue with each individual store, or the corporation as a whole. It's a "few bad apples" scenario that even makes this an issue.

Walmarts that have good truck parking areas & policy. They have had for awhile:
Sidney, NE
Lexington, NE
Coralville, IA
Salem, IL
Flora, IL
Champaign, IL
Urbana, IL
Carlyle, IL (personal favorite)
Vandalia, IL
Paducah, KY (both locations)
Henderson,KY
Boonville, IN
Vincinnes, IN
Among many others. Seems most of the non truck friendly places are in larger metro areas.
Trashy drivers could be prosecuted quite easy since they have cameras all over the place.
Same with the lazy turds that can't be bothered to return the cart 50ft to the cart collection area & leave them out to roll around hitting other vehicles & block parking spots.
There is NO excuse for that kind of laziness & low-class dirtbaggery.
Should be a quick sending of video to local police department & instant memorable fine ($1000+) sentanced.
DOT number, license plate, & driver photo sent nationwide to all coops & police departments that would be collected from the first scale or officer to pull that truck over. Truck/driver would be placed OOS until fine was paid.
Walmart would get a cut to cover cleanup & hassle, local police would make money from a legitamate source, & scale would get to punish dirtbag by administering a free of charge lvl1 inspection while also getting a cut of the littering ticket.
Should be done at truck stops as well.
No confrontations needed, since the average persons reasonability is inversely proportional to their irrational ego driven anger level at being accused of anything when they are guilty.
Bet the average driver quality would go up over time.TokyoJoe, mladen86, fat albert and 1 other person Thank this. -
