    That's like the Pilot on exit 93 in Ct.When the wind is blowing in the right direction,the smell of that huge dairy farm will make your face melt.

    Or the TA in Texas on I-20 at mile marker 177 (Big Spring) when the wind is from the east and it blows the smell of the refinery through the truck stop.

    The day this thread started I watched a Swifty try to back up on his blind side by pulling as far forward into the opposite rows as possible first. With no flashers on they couldn't figure out why drivers kept blowing by when they tried to back up. It was in Minooka, IL and there are only two rows at the pilot. After ten minutes of trying to get out, they just gave up and parked in the two spots across the drive... I feel bad for anyone who hasn't had the training to back up very well but little things like "don't blind side back!" should be common knowledge. Yes, I'm an ### for no helping but I was having my own problems that day...

    I watched a teacher make a student blindside in. There were about 20 open spaces so it should've been easy, but they made it look harder than anything I've ever tried.
