Texas Nana REAL TRUCKs just do not have CURTAINS![]()
But all jokes aside usually you see the trucks staggered a bit so your not window to window ( door to door ) but also some drivers take the effort to line up perfectly with yours. I hate it for the WHIFF of cigarette smoke moreso than seeing the SMILEY face all the time

hmmmmmm You've missed the fact that I'm the only responder not ragging on him for his quirk. *shrugs* Every human has something that bothers them and at times need to rant a bit about it. He's a human, he needed to vent. It shouldn't get him a bunch of insults. -
i back in as far as i can--if i happen to be lined up--so be it--i dont really like seeing somebody else sit and pick their nose--so i usually pull the curtains ---if i am parked usually i am sleeping anyways
chopper23966 Thanks this. -
Basically what I do.
However, if they are sitting in their seat, whatever, I do not care.
I get in the back and do not sit up front to see what is next door.
It is their home and I do not care. -
I know I have some quirks! Sometimes ya just gotta vent! Helps keep one from wanting to choke the snot out of someone.

Texas-Nana Thanks this. -
Geez NANA , Where did I rag on him in my post ?
-
I'm not a exhibitionist or voyeur. I back into a spot as far as I can without hitting something behind me. If that lines me up with a window I could care less. It looks like you have a Freightliner Century on your avatar. Everyone that I have had in the past had curtains on the windows and a curtain between the sleeper and seats. Close the curtains if you are worried about peeping truckers.chopper23966 Thanks this.

Exactly.

Nana has difficulty counting because of the happy pills she's on from breaking her arm!
Make that three people for sure that aren't ragging . . . Nana, you and me!

Is that your expert opinion after 11 long years? IF you had read my rant with even a smidgen of comprehension,then you would have noted that I declared that a)my truck is longer than most so I am already backed as far back as possible meaning IT IS ODD that another will stop window to window; b) that i stated for extended periods.
I understand the need for quick parking and the in and out fast deals but the extended parking window to window deal is an odd type of behavior IMHO.
My post is my rant and posted for others to consider or not.Obviously you are not a courteous driver but i do appreciate the reply.
