When passing through Philly one Saturday, and wishing I was in that stadium. I noticed hmmm all those RVs and school bus. Think we could park our Expeditor 40 trucks in there as well? I love baseball, ever since I was a right field back up to a back up in little league. Yeah me & sports I...

I have seen one truck with alum wheel covers. Looked not to good in my estimate. All we have back there that needs protection is the lighting wiring harness, dolly legs and thats all I can think of. Cost probably not worth the invesment.

I am at the J in Jackson GA it is under construction only two toilets for about 200 or more truck spaces. One could mess up big time waiting. It could be funny to just watch these drivers and people waiting in line, or should I say it would be cruel. I used a Porta Jon outside today lines...
