Cracker Barrel parking

So, called ahead and verified that parking was kosher.

Got here and this major league douche nozzle in a Winnebago is taking up 3 (THREE) RV spaces. 2 others are taking up the remaining spaces and seem to be following the rules.

Jerk.

I parked elsewhere in the lot and hope to run into this yutz at breakfast.

Rude, rude, rude.

Well at least the spaces are being used by an RV as opposed to the Btards with cars that use when there are plenty of car spaces. Personally I find most CB RV spaces to short even if not towing and I’m driving a 31 ft mh.

Cracker Barrels aren't the best places for big RVs. Go to WalMart, instead.

We go to CB for dinner, but some of the lots are not big enough to use for overnighting. Now that we are fully retired, we use campgrounds for our overnight stops.

Does Walmart have a restaurant now? How do you like the food?

The one closest to me has a Subway. Does that count? If not, you can pick up a rotisserie chicken & a 6 pack & dine in your RV.

No Cracker Barrel where I've eaten has parking long enough for RV's, despite the lettering on the spots.

There is great need for a sarcasm font.

This post was on 'parking' & that's how I answered.

I go to WalMart to shop. There are many good deli choices if I want to eat or grab a rotisserie chicken - much more reasonable and more healthy than a restaurant. Yes, I like WalMart's food.

Walmart does own a large chain of restaurants in Mexico. Thought maybe they have some here. ?

Might try to get there earlier so as not to run into someone that got there before you.....you know free parking tends to fill up quick. Did said douchebags RV require all three spota?

Agree with this but would add trip planning is more important nowadays with more RVs on the road.
