Parking in Sacramento, CA?

Yeah, that's why I don't visit family often. Only paid parking is available, and now I have a truck payment that will hand me my ### if I stop for more than a couple days.

 

If I find me a little hidey hole, I will gladly help other drivers. As far as I'm concerned, we're all one big dysfunctional family. But if you steal my spot when I visit twice a year, I'ma show you what a lil five foot nothing rabid chihuahua looks like. Rawr! ;}~

 

That's great to hear, I plan on fueling there to knock out part of it, and may just get my beast a bath too. I did find a cheaper place to park that is actually right across the street from my grandparents' house, but, it's not a secured lot, and if I am gonna pay for parking, I'd rather get something out of it. So I'll be buying enough crap at the 49er to validate, and then turning my receipts in to ATBS. I won't have to buy Monster energy drinks for a while, lol.

 

I had considered parking at the Walmart by my mom's house, but I don't want to get towed or come back out to a boot on my truck. I've heard a lot of them have started doing that. An angle grinder is on the to buy list. ######## need to go pick on someone their own size. I bite! When properly motivated...

 

I've already had things stolen off of my truck, and I only just got it. I was not pleased. Thankfully it was only a $20 item, but yeah, I'm just gonna suck it up and pay for parking for that secured lot. It's a tax write off. I'll just growl about it like a proper trucker, lol.

 

I was there for a couple days. It's entirely possible someone may have told me wrong and I just believed them and paid it too. That's what I get for not double checking myself. At the time I was irritated because some DM's with my former company will allow drivers to be reimbursed for paid parking now and then as long as it isn't a constant thing. My DM wouldn't, so I bought $50 worth of stuff there to validate my parking, because I will be ###### if I am gonna just pay for parking and not get anything else out of it when so many places will honor that. As a matter of fact, I had some knob tell me that I couldn't stay on the curb where I was at earlier tonight without paying. I wasn't even in an actual freaking spot (there were none available)! I went three miles up the road and found a MUCH better place to park anyway, so ha!
