I pulled into the Love's in Fort Morgan Colorado a bit ago. I'm actually here till Monday morning (Saturday afternoon now). I parked with my truck heading North. Unfortunately, my SiriusXM antenna wasn't getting a good signal (Geostationary satellites, like those used by SiriusXM, are always to the South in the sky when in the Northern Hemisphere) because my truck was blocking the satellite feed. So, I moved my truck across the way to head toward the South. Satellite signal is good and strong now!
So, what's the most trivial reason that you've switched parking spots? Only other time I remember moving spots in the same truck stop was when I parked next to a loud clanky longnose on my driver side and the noise was bugging me.
Ever moved parking spots?

I once moved to a different spot after a cattle hauler parked next to me.

Ya know, before I started driving a truck. I never noticed all the cattle, pig and chicken trucks on the road. Now, when I see them it makes me sad and tempts me to become a vegetarian. Unfortunately, giving up steak, bacon and fried chicken is something I just can't wrap my head around!justcarhaulin, tscottme, mitrucker and 4 others Thank this. -
