I have no idea in the world why you would attack someone for doing exactly what you had just done! How in the world could they read your mind and know you are nose in because you want everyone else to be ### end in? Sorry bud, this is absurd.
aiwiron and Knew B. Wannabee Thank this. -
Some lots it's better to nose in. I'd rather fall asleep on an upward incline where I'd roll back in the bunk against the back wall instead of rolling forward and hit my head on the cabinet.
aiwiron and Red Hot Mess Thank this. -
There have been a few times I would pull into a truck stop tired and I would find the easiest spot to park into. Sometimes I had a noisy reefer running, but I knew I could back out anytime I wanted. I could have back in, but my reefer wasn't whispering any sweet sounds that would put a baby to sleep.
Sometimes the truck stop was filling up fast and I would find the closest easiest place to park. Sometimes I would get cussed out by someone saying they were going for that spot. Oh, well try to be a little faster next time

If it is a double row, never nose up to a truck that has nosed in on the opposing row and leave engine running if other truck is running.
They will suck the air out of each other, causing both trucks to overheat.Red Hot Mess Thanks this. -
( that's about the silliest thing I've heard, BTW )
Now, I'll be afraid to walk too close to the trucks correctly parked. I might get stuck to a radiator like a june-bug.Hammer166 Thanks this. -
