    That's the neat thing about living in a small midwest farming town, the police know who drives each truck in town. Anyone messing around with a truck that shouldn't be, the neighbors and cops know. I even had the person across the street tell me when my apu quit working.
     
    U4EA Thanks this.

    Just last week I saw a truck parked at a Home Depot for a few days. I may do the same, but if not allowed there is an INN three miles from my house and they charge $10 per day to park. I will then pay a taxi $7 to take me home.

    In the driveway. Of course, my driveway is 210 feet long, if that gives you any indication of the population density around here. We *MAY* (and I'm kind of against it) put in enough gravel so he can come in laden. But, that's about $2000 or more to make enough improvements so that he can get a whole rig in and out.

    I drop the trailer at a local company lot about a mile from my house and park the truck about 5 steps from my front door.

    Backed into my driveway, which still leaves room for 5 cars.
