    I once slept with my windows cracked open outside the TA in SoCal... NEVER AGAIN!!! #### mosquitos came in and started biting me lol. Ive done 10/34hrs in secure to sketchy places, nothing really happens as long as youre not looking for trouble... and if something does happen i have my friend smith wesson ;)
    But hey, a little extra security never hurt anybody.

    I have had one knock on the door of my truck in a year. It was never that quiet in my first few years of OTR.

    Yep. If you don't try to buy or sell stolen merchandise, drugs, gamble, or argue with those doing those things you'll likely never have a problem.

    There are a lot of things that drivers need to worry about on the road. Having some dimwit breaking into my truck while I sleep isn't one of those things. I just tried to search on big rig burglaries while driver's are inside, and I couldn't find a news account of a single instance.

    Don't hold your breath waiting for me to thanks you later.
     
    Tb0n3 Thanks this.

    Where did you park in Memphis that you needed to strap your doors? Truck stops here aren't THAT bad. I'd have my load locked of course.

    Ballpeen hammers are mafia favorites.
    The bible says "Offer you enemy food, and blessed be your persecuters".
    So offer them some nice hot lead.
