    The Petro has security these days, and the TA at Earle AR has never been a problem for me. There's also the TA at Denmark TN.

    Dallas, Atlanta, Memphis - all high crime areas. Plan your trips into places like this by staying outside of the metro area by about an hours drive. Then you just have a short drive into the shipper or receiver before your appointment.

    You can get curtains for the front of your cab as well - keeps people on the outside guessing as to whether there is someone inside.

    Thats what I did today. Trying to stay out of the city. Im not taking 40 into Arkansas so stopping early was my only option. I drop out int a little Arkansas town, not going to be fun to get into. But well make it.

    I just bought a curtain at a t/s. Just hooks onto a few places around the front of the cab. Works good for me

    Yeah, that's your best bet. I priced out the Freightliner curtains and tracks, it was like $700! They sell one at the company store for $21. It works just fine. Really helps keep the heat out too!
