So I parked at the far quiet end of the truckstop.....

Same here. I actually welcome the newer reefers....they're quite soothing, actually. And the way today is going, I may just hunt one down tonight!!

 

The other night I heard a loud pop followed by a hiss about five spots down. There was a truck backing in and I thought they probably lost a bead. It wasn't long until I head it again. Ok... Someone is having a really bad day.

Turns out it was an air dryer.

 

Same truck I was parked beside, 3 nights in a row. Cross country, funny thing was it was a different rig every night.

 

I park in my spot as far back as possible. That way I don't have to watch the guy on my left picking his nose or the gal on my right pluck chin hairs. My eyeballs have yet to recover from the 300lb hairy beast without a stitch of clothing on. "Tucking" also ensures that the inevitable reefer isn't able to line up a running unit with my sleeper.

 

It would be nice if trucks would park in groups. Oversize in one area, refers in another, tanks and vans could co-habitate.

Frankly I'd settle for 6 wheelers, hotshots, and bobtails not taking up an entire rig parking spot!
