Rv parks!! There would be less rules, maybe, might cost less, maybe!! I still like Walmart, and if common sense is used everything should be fine.

Bet it costs more to get out of a Walmart that it does to get out of an RV park.

Rules; Rules; Rules, Please tell me what ever happened to common sense? The ones that cause all the problems don't follow any written or unwritten rules. They just don't give a d--- about any one or anything; spoiled since birth and rotten to the core. (if this statement irritates you; you are one of them.) If the shoe fits.
Thats my two cents and I"ll stick by it.

It's a long dry spell from Albuquerque north on I25/US285. We got into Espanola NM one night about ten thinking one of the casinos would have a place for us, but none did. And facing 75 miles of nothingness to the next town, Antonito CO, where there was nothing, and 30 miles more to a WM in Alamosa, we pulled into the last gas station and asked to park there. Not a problem. Slept well and were off in the morning after buying coffee, etc., in their store.

Those power draw numbers for a C-PAP machine sound suspicious. My Resperonics System One with a humidifier and a added on heated air tube draws 5.4a @ 12v. My Resperonics unit and most others can be run directly on 12v DC. C-PAP.com has 12v cords for most brands. I installed a power plug (cigarette lighter) in the side of the bed frame and found a always hot 12v source under the bed.

At the risk of being kept track of I will repeat again the topic is "Walmart Parking", and the tone of the board is to "Be Nice". While the topic has been allowed some leeway the Be Nice theme will not be side tracked.
While the thread may not be closed a few more may be escorted from the lot, please take heed.

First rule of Walmart parking, there is no Walmart parking. 2nd rule, we do not speak of Walmart parking. Now, go make butter.

I was going from Norfolk, VA to Colorado Springs. Hit St. Louis nd figured I'd drive to Kansas City and stop. Got there and wasn't tired so kept going.. BIGGEST mistake as it became nothingness 
Ended up driving straight through.. 24.5 hours...
