    Does he have a special situation with the dealer or do the dealers usually allow this for truckers?

    I think he gets to do it because he bought the truck from him. I used to park at the peterbilt dealership in Waco but I knew the service manager. If they have room your local dealership might let you park there. They may also ask for money. Also talk to Home Depot and Lowe’s. My brother in law parks his truck at Lowe’s in the back.

    Yeah I’ll have to find somewhere. There’s a few Lowe’s and all near where I live. I imagine that if our truck gets towed or damaged during off time. That since we get to take the truck home then any fees to repair or pay for the tow is on our hands yeah?

    According to CFI last week, as long as your parked where you told them you are going to park the truck and you did everything within your power to keep it from happening (making sure doors are locked, keys aren't in the ignition, etc.) Then you should be ok. But it's a case by case basis.
     
    RoadRooster and Ultratowel Thank this.

    We get paid for deadhead right? I imagine the only bit we don’t get paid for is when driving home from our last delivery? Lol. Random thoughts at night. Gotta catch me this greyhound at 5:30am. Will be in Joplin about 3 on sunday
