ok, I gotta get input from this group on this...
![]()
Parked in yet another Truck Stop where almost every parking spot seems to be set up to require a blind side back... why? why? why?
This just makes no sense to me personally... unless there is a coordinated attempt to keep out the Steering Wheel Holders, like me, that do anything possible to avoid a Blind Side Back.
What am I missing?
(Note: relevance to thread? rumor has it this parking lot was snowed upon this past winter.)
And yes, that Blue Dot is me... I opted for a 90 degree back vs backing around the corner of the trucks of others...![]()
What if it Snows?

Or running the garden hose before drinking.
He probably had an issue with bad def, and the mechanic told him about how def crystalizes over time and you should always top of the def tank when ever you fuel to keep things "fresh". Driver takes it a step further and says "I only want the good stuff from the tank with none of the oxidized stuff".Dave_in_AZ and MidWest_MacDaddy Thank this. -
Go the direction so you can site side back. Unless I'm missing something might be possible since it's bedtime. But looks to be all could be site side backed intoDave_in_AZ Thanks this.

But if one attempts to sight side back into these spots (circled in red) then the Driver is making a back way beyond a 90 and actually approaching a sight side U turn in reverse???
Like I said, I might be missing something but seems more complex that needed... well, for those Simple Steering Wheel Holders such as myself.Dave_in_AZ Thanks this. -
