    This fable gets better all the time! Now you're professing you didn't even get out of the truck to shop and that you were surrounded. You allowed them to disable your truck by removing a glad hand.

    Some get what they deserve and others.....

    Last time I pulled all the way in there, saw a BIG sign no semi parking. Called the store to ask to shop, they said, you park, you will be towed. So be it....
    Just looked at the store on Google Satellite to see if I could see the sign. Low and behold! There is a big truck wrecker spotted there.
    I want to say the last couple of months I saw some trucks parked against the fence line by the interstate.

    Just go down the road to Meijer Store (at the bottom of the big dip.) Better merch, nice people. No overnight parking but the signs say 4 hours to stop.

    Stayed the night at the Walmart in pell city Alabama last night.... 17 trucks in the parking lot, the same way it always is...there is no parking signs but its common knowledge that its okay to park there. Like I said in an earlier post, some are OK, some will tow you. Its a crapshoot, call ahead!

    formertaxidriver--- you are absolutely correct....just got off the phone with Clayton Walmart manager by the name Steve Todd...he stated:"there is over 50 no truck parking signs on the lot"...there is an ongoing contract with towing company who frequently drives by....if you are in a commercial truck of any kind you will be hooked up and towed with no warning!!! Commercial truck is anyone with signs on it and US DOT #....
    there is no designated place to park for such ....so if you are rig driver or cargo van driver (e.g. FEXED) you will be towed ....or it will cost you minimum $150.00 if you hooked and $300.00 if you towed!!! YOU are NOT WELCOMED TO SHOP THERE...if you like to verify this call 937.836.9405

    you are welcome to shop there, just not to park your semi there. be careful what you wish for, I can see this going in a different direction.

    Meltom---how are you welcomed to shop there as there is no place to park rig....in fact....there is NO PARKING OF COMMERCIAL VEHICLE of any kind...that is contractor truck (pick up), cargo van, small and mid sized truck....anything other than a car!!!! Unless I am missing something from phone conversation with the store manager Steve Todd today....there is no parking...and if there is no parking so there is no shopping!!!!In fact why would anyone wanna to park somewhere else just to come and spend their money at lovely WALMART....????? I am not doing that anymore....After last events I quit shopping walmart all toghether....I used to spend about $100.00/week on food supply at that joint!!! Not anymore....
