    Exactly. Heck, last week when I had to park near Tulsa at the Flying J, all the "real" parking spaces were full by 1600 (I got there around 1700) and I had to park with some other guys in one of the "creative" parking spaces. And it just kept getting more crazy as the night went on. When I left at 0600 the next morning, there were trucks shut down not only in the pull-forward spots by the fuel island but in the fuel island in all but one of the 6 or so lanes. I can't imagine how the folks who arrive at these places after 2200, night after night, can deal with that.

    Does Roehl have cameras inside their trucks?

    I was just at that ts yesterday. Got there at 1600 and it was dang near full by then. I had to nose in on one of the ends. It's getting worse and worse it seems. So many trucks out now and not enough parking. Hell tonight I dropped my relay at the East St Louis yard and I'm staying right here for the night. Not even going to bother going across the street to that Pilot and try to find something.

    Which one did you get. I've thought about it...looking outward only without sound. Consider it personal liability protection. If I screw up then I'll take my lumps (unless it accidentally got run over first) but at least I'd have control.

    How much did you pay for yours? I'm thinking about it too. So many crazy drivers out here. I don't want to get in a jam for something that wasn't my fault.

    Sitting at cons in Green Bay waiting for an open dock with a sold trailer that gets dropped at Neenah tonight. Preplan to Montreal (1k mi) for Friday AM. Can't wait to start dedicated as it stays in 14 Midwest states with no Canada.
