    Not unless you rent a motel room.

    If I use my settlement card for fuel do I still get the discount at the TA/Petro? Basically my paycheck today was $500 and instead of putting that into my business account I would rather just use it for fuel and get a cash advance.

    Old BCO's like myself just have one card for all purposes. I would say yes but that is a question you should ask BCO services to be sure.

    If I'm pre qualified already, would their be anything the could snag me up in orientation?

    if I made it through all the pre qualify levels I should be basically okay to get on right?

    Pretty much OK.

    If you they have accepted your DMV, physical & drug screen you are looking good. If you have already had your truck/trailer inspected by a LS approved inspection station and they have accepted it I see no problems. Just show up for orientation and be prepared to be baffled with ########.

    At home. But then again I have 30 acres in the country with no restrictions. Some cities have ordinances against commercial vehicles being parked in residential areas. If that is the case or your neighbors are toal jerks or it just plain won't fit at your house then you could approach commercial businesses about parking there for a fee.

    A word of warning: leaving your truck in shopping plazas is inviting disaster.

If that is the case you could approach commercial businesses about parking there for a small fee. I see you are from Lakeland so maybe the 40 acre truck stop would work? That is if it is still in business. Parking in shopping plazas is inviting disaster.

    I always park mine in a commercial area where there are other semis parked there. I always take anything of value out of my truck, put air valve cuff on, and put spare drive tire inside trailer and lock it.
