    The criminals in the area love vacant trucks.

    I'd be worried about parking it at Jim's, unless they've put in more lights in the lot than they used to have. Also, you could always get sideswiped by a hit-and-run Swifty, since that lot is tight....

    As soon as they reneged on the promise to help you find a place to park, you should have declined the job. This is the first of many broken promises to come. Do not take possession of that truck until you have a safe, secure and approved by the company place to park it!

    Excited for truck parking club to gain some more traction. More competition, better rates, more options. Owner of the site seems like a cool guy based on the couple podcasts he's been on.

    Thanks to them, I now have a parking spot for hometime within walking distance of my apartment for the same rate as the truck stop in town.
