    Ok I'm not such a big Walmart lover myself, but if you ever go to the Pine Bluff Arkansas Walmart take a look at where the trucks park. Its a redneck poor mans truck repair shop. I've seen semi trailer wheel bearings off and the trailer had obviously been there a long time. Surface rust flat tires etc. Thats what ruins it for the rest of the guys who just want to park. Littering, peeing, fixing your equipment, using it as a place to permanently park your truck is what nobody likes. Of course trying to sue for a family member dying there is so preposterous I don't even want to talk about that. If truckers want respect and want to be able to park on others private property then start appreciating it. Start taking care of it. Otherwise I dont blame anyone who runs off trucks.

    Exactly. I park at a local Walmart and have posted pics of the mess left by others. I clean this up to not only make the issue go away, but also so they don’t kick me out.

    99% of Walmart store deliveries are made by the Walmart private fleet. Plus you are on private property. They dont owe you a place to park.

    Walmart DC. I specified walmart due to their rigid nature.

    Those mud duck radios are an embarrassment. Almost like those clowns in the CB forum.

    Back to WalMart though, I heard they won’t let trucks on the property. You have to wheel all the trailer contents to the dock by the appointment time or else you are late. First your dodging falling prices, then your paying $200 to set a new appt,
