It's a bobtail, or a hotshot. Nope, just Western Express...

    After a long, full 14 hour day, everyone's looking for that last parking space at the truck stop. You're driving through the lot and see that space between two trucks and you're praying it's open, but in the back of your mind you know there's a bobtail or a 1 ton pickup parked there. Then when you get there and see nothing parked, but a truck jackknifed into the spot taking up two spaces when all the other trucks are parked straight...it leaves you speechless amongst all the swear words you can think of

    Backing, or for that matter, going forward has never been WE's strong suit.

    I actually dont blame Western this time. That bobtail could have gotten closer to the truck on his passenger side. I liken this to truck stops with no marked spaces, they would be more room if drivers knew how to park right

    Looks like the WE truck is parked fine. Looks like the bobtails are spread out.

    Looks like the bobtails shouldn't be there.
