    I agree, I feel less safe parked overnight at Sam's Clubs and other places surrounded by woods being the only one parked there by the dock. Truck stops like Pilot, TA almost feel like safe haven.

    I live in the country so the opposite for me feels natural; hell I’ll go camp in the woods and build me a campfire hehehe

    Good deal for you:) For a city boy like me I'm thinking if someone tries to rob the truck, no one would be able to hear my scream:)

    Buy the classic Buck Skinner knife, that’s a good one at a low price; you know, the one the killer used on the movie, “Scream”

    Word up:) The only person tried to intrude into my tractor was the prostitute that frequents Pilot in Gary IN, I gave her some food and she was kind enough to leave without entering
