Sooo, I Find Me A Hole To Park...

They ain't just waiting... their both loading both barrels...

 

I've had Swiftys, Werners and Schnieders all scare me. And I'm about 6 months along in a PAM truck!

 

Shoot, when I started driving it was for the big orange freight hauling company. I always parked by the O/O's, in the back row. What better incentive to get good at backing that an ### whipping from some dude in a large car?

 

Hi, i do the same, parked next too me, most times the guys next too me is deaf, cause he got chrome cannons for exhaust bumped the idel up high and let her rip, along with chrome cannon on reefer, along with his annoying pop -pop air brakes every 5 secs with no muffler on that too and then his apu also has those giant chrome cannon too with no muffelers anywear on this truck and his rapping away over there with door skin bang in out and im trying sleep thru all this noise , sitting next too him, so too rather too start a ruscus i just moved, i also lernt never park next too car parking lot as one took out my right mirror, i ran him down on foot , i can run fast, caught at the exit line going out of truckstop ,he was 6 trucks back, climb up cause i was mad and told him right too face , sercurty wacthing and just circled the lot, when they see this all going on,yanked me off the truck , they were there quik too which really surprized me as what going on , i told em he just hit me,tryed too deny it , had looked at his cab as i got up there no wonder he hit me , he had stuff piled up so high in cab and the right windsheild was broken , i dont know what his problem, but he didnt care about his rig at all ,it was a pieace of junk so anymore i just park way out back in dirt , let the refer boys find cause im a magnet and by morn i have 10 around me, Everett.

 

Me, too. It seems a lot of drivers want as close to the truck stop building as they cane get. There's been many of times that I've back in the back forty and watched other trucks drive around the lot, looking for a spot. There'd be a spot, or two, to back in next to me and they would circle around and leave. I reckon they just don't want to take the time to back into a spot, they'd rather just pull through.

 

Talk about scary....park come out and see not one but TWO swift trucks attempting to park on either side of your beautiful truck!!!! I think I had a heartattack.....I just stood there watching and holding my breath....hehe no offence to swift but one took my nose off one day

 

I always tried to park as far away from the building as possible. Figured I needed the exercise.

I was at that little truck stop on US 50 near I70 in Grand Junction CO one time. It was cold and blowing snow. There were only a few trucks in there, but I parked in their back lot that is across the street, and all the way to the back.

I had an old hand laugh at me for being a "rookie." Which I was at the time, but that is not why I parked back there. I needed the "stretch out" time between the truck and Oscars.

 

I always try to park as far away as possible too. Gets me some exercise. But I have to admit a few times I've had issues getting into some spots mainly because there was too much room.......#### wagon starts goin all over the place..LOL it also coulda been from lack of sleep too but I'll never tell

 

I think you nailed the situation 100%.

I was just giving some ##&^ on making it up....
