    Oh yes! It was better when he lifted the seat, but then I couldn't touch the floor! Haha!

    My wife loved sleeping in the bunk as well the bounce of the slepper airbags put her out like a light.

    Our trip was short, so I didn't try the bunk. Maybe another time. I don't care to take our 3 year old, so it probably won't happen anytime soon. Have to see what the rider policy is with his next company.

    Hi DenaliDad,
    We're sorry if you had difficulty backing out of an IdleAir space. We try to staff all our locations to match up best with the times that drivers are coming in off the road and settling in for the night. We typically do NOT staff at 4am. (Many drivers remember when our predecessor company staffed each location 24/7, but that's an unsustainable cost structure that contributed to their failure.)
    We ask that all drivers - even if they're not using IdleAir services - park nose-in to IdleAir spaces to help prevent damage to your trucks and our equipment.
    Thanks!

    I am. I was staying with my daughter while my Army son-in-law is deployed, but she could only handle me for a few months! And grad school loans still have to be paid...!

    So I'm back where I started 4 years ago, at WEL.

    Thanks for the answer, IA. The signs are very clearly posted; I guess folks just can't read very well.
