Message:: [QUOTE="stwik, post: 12162287, member: 205401"]Try and find the widest single spot you can find that still provides a relatively straight back for those on either side of you — TA/Petro is notorious for having some spots skinnier than others. I prefer pull throughs and I’m not usually long enough to leave the trailer in the spaces behind me. But it also allows those on my left and right to pull through as well, usually. I’ve parked up to 12’ in a single spot so I wouldn’t worry about needing 2. But like I said — not all spaces are created equal and I have many co-workers that will gladly angle across two spots with a 10’ wide load if their 80+ feet long. If you don’t want to put it in a spot consider a curb out of the way — I’ve parked next to the Cat Scale as long as I’m not blocking others. I tend to not park at spots I’m unfamiliar with when I’m wide and I’d gladly end the day 2-3 hours early if it meant getting GOOD parking rather than traveling down the road another 150 miles and having to get creative. That’s just my two cents. Martin said the rest.[/QUOTE]
