Don’t tell any one, but I will tell you the answer. It’s sort of a secret we flatbed types have. We park all whompass for a reason. Keeps the refer drivers from parking next to us. Then when another flat comes in we park straight so the other guy has a spot.
PoleCrusher, stwik and fargonaz Thank this. -
Yeah. We know. But it works out good anyway because reefer drivers don’t want to risk parking next to a flatbed because of all the risk of catching something that will require a visit to the doctor

Reefer drivers love to park next to flatbedders. They think it makes them cool by association

Not sure about that. Refer drivers seem like a lonely bunch.

It's a frieken truck stop, trucks of all kinds are going to park next to you.
My favorite are flamable tankers that park next to you and then throw a fit because you are smoking a cigarette . Tough cookie pal, you parked next to me, It's your problem if you don't like it.

And so you could get back out instead of being blocked in.

Well to be fair, flatbedders attract women who like straps and chains and are kinda rough and like it rough. Reefer drivers, on the other hand, attract softer women who like to be treated attentively and gently, all night longtaodnt, Dave_in_AZ and RustyChops41 Thank this.
