I just recently purchase a almost like new class A motorhome with 29,000 miles no slide outs as I didnt want any. Its a 30 ft Hurricane by Four-Winds with a triton V-10 just a few questions they,ll probally be stupid but thats ok, Im assumming when pulling into a rest-area you park along side the truckers. And does anyone pull off into rest areas and take naps like the truck drivers do ? Now I owned a triton v 8 which was like outstanding in a PU Now with the Triton v 10 I search reviews and did not read one bad complaint.

Some rest areas are marked for RVs, the ones that are not, I just find an open spot, and make sure I cant get boxed in.

I do not stop and take naps in rest stops, I usually drive 6 hours a day and then stop at a campground for the night. I would have no problem though stopping and taking a nap if I had to

I do some of my best sleeping in rest areas.

My typical day driving is out by 8 or 9, drive till 12- 1, eat lunch, take nap. drive till 4 or 5 stop for the night. Next day repeat. I usually get in 300-400 miles a day. I got 117,000 miles to show for it.

Rest stop are our friends. Like mgscott we stop, nap, eat and let the dogs walk around and do their business. I don't stay over night (if allowed) because of personal reasons.
I also have a Triton V10 (a 2 b4) and I haven't had 1 problem with any of them. Not to push them, but I got the 5 star RV tune and it really helped with shifting and power.
