WTH Florida???

That was at my pick up in Oregon a couple weeks ago.
That was my once every 10 years trip to the northwest !

 

Sounds like me !

I eat at mom and pop truck stops or regular restaurants for the most part.
The big truck stops are for fuel and shower only then get out before some clueless idiot knocks my hood off.
I've got my hiding spots that are safe and proven for the most part.

I'll be 52 on 12-8 this is year number 24 out here and it will be my last most likely.

 

Were Close on Age- You get an "atta boy" anyway

Nice Setup their Mike- I Know the E-logs have a lil to do with it

I'll be going local under a 100 air miles come the First of January- I'm not playing games with the morons in DC

 

There is one west of Lake really big in middle florida that I pay a man 10 bucks for, strip of gravel on his land at night near what used to be a hotel but now a ruin.

That spot I share, it's about 14 miles from that big lake K or wahtever it's name it. You will know it when you see it.

 

lmfaooo

 

Just got into FLA today ... squeezed into the last available spot at the Loves...

Fla is not a truck friendly place

 

Florida is the only state where I park at the scale house.
There's a 150 parking spots for the 5 of us who aren't afraid
To park There to choose from.
They even have a separate building for the drivers
With a bathroom in it ,for the 2am emergency.
And it's clean.
Couple junk food machines. What else does a man need.

Take your shower on the way in.
Park at the coops. There's always a 100 spots open
Day and night.
That's what it's there for.
Everybody is afraid that DOT Is gonna mess with them.

I asked them about it when I was in the scale house.
Once you roll across the scales you can park out back
And take your break.
When you leave out you don't have to cross the scales
Again. Just hop in the bypass lane and take off.

 

Tourist area. Always been horrible for parking. Used to be a good hiding spot down in Kissimee right off the pike.

 

Agreed-they have never done a thing to accommodate trucks. This is just plain disconcern by the state and they could care less. Many trucks only come into Florida once or twice a year and don't know many of the off path places to park. The whole country is a joke as far as truck parking.
