Old Stinky Trucks

Why oh why on a cool weather day does someone ALWAYS have to pull up next to us in an old truck with stinky exhaust?? I really enjoy my windows cracked or the roof fan on, and everytime I do I either get someone who smokes one ciggarette after another or a truck with horrible exhaust fumes, lol. Next time, and I always say this, I'm not parking at the truck stop. I think they may be doing it on purpose....I can see the laughter from here.

A smoker in another truck bothers you? Me thinks yer way too sensitive!

As for me ... I always park in the nether regions .. often at Wal-Mart, McDonalds, etc ... it's that sweet smell of the truck stop lot that gets me!

Old trucks with stinky exhaust have to park too.. I don't think they pick you out and say.. let's go park by them so we can stink them out.. :)

Well, the only honest suggestion I could give the original poster would be to walk into the truck stop and find out who the owner is and buy the truck stop..or at least the parking lot. You will then have the right to select who parks there and who doesn't :D

Until then, you probably better work on being a little more tolerant of your peers.. or seek out other places to park.

He speaks the truth, Nota. Sitting at a stop light, I can detect a smoker three cars away. And if they are right next to me, up go the windows. Not only do they stink, they take my breath away(Emphysema). After I quit smoking, I was appalled at the odor coming from/off smokers. I asked folks if that it how i smelled, when I smoked, & they answered in the affirmitive.

How dare a truck park at a truck stop. The nerve of some people!

I think coffee stinks but I deal with it just like some people need to deal with cigarettes or exhaust in public spaces. Now people with BO, lets just blow them up.

Coffee stinks, so does body odor, but they don't kill, so I deal with them. Cigarettes, on the other hand kill people, and bother me so much that I have to move. I can't even be outside next to a smoker, or I'll have major problems.

I'm not so sure body odor can't kill. :)
