Moron can smear your mirrors off with his trailer back there in the dark just as easy as he can wipe the hood off out front. Probably even more likely to happen.
If there's something around to hit, a truck driver will figure out a way to do it.

And guess what? I can put a new mirror on my truck a lot easier than rebuilding the front end. And it would only be one mirror, unless I somehow drew the short straw and had dummies on both sides.Sirscrapntruckalot, Cabinover101, Rideandrepair and 6 others Thank this.

Oh, he'll just push that hood off the other way.
Why do you really think it's going to save you?
You've seen all the knocked over light poles.Rideandrepair and special-k Thank this. -
Last guy that pulled in Nose first hit my truck , so no screw them non backing folks .
RockinChair and Trucker61016 Thank this. -
With my old truck and spread I was out about 10ft passed the other trucks unless I could tie my flaps up and back over the curb into the grass. So what difference does it make what 10ft you have to back around? You still have to back around something to get into that spot.Cabinover101, spyder7723 and Rideandrepair Thank this.

I’ll be right back. I’m going to go tell this guy to turn around and back in because there are upset people on the internet. Lol

I can stand reefer noise. It’s that constant purging of trucks with obvious air leaks. Freaking air governor cutting off every 30 seconds drives me nuts!Canadianhauler21, Rideandrepair, Odin's Rabid Dog and 2 others Thank this.

It just makes everything look bad when only a few are nosed in.
Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
I liked the quiet. No reefers, dryers, fans, high idles.
I also liked leaving with my truck in one peace.
And the privacy of no audience.
You don't like trucks parking nose in. That's YOUR problem. Not mine. I could care less how you feel about it.rooster1775, Cabinover101, Rideandrepair and 8 others Thank this. -
Didn’t realize the truck and trailer grow 8’ when nosed in. That’s amazingLast edited: Jan 26, 2020
