RVs do show up from time to time but they dont stay very long (days). The parking lot is very tight and there are a lot of guys (pilots, mechs, rampers, etc) competing for those spots. I imagine you would get a note on your windshield fairly quickly, but I dont know that for a fact.

Speaking of parking lots why in the world can we not tow all of the abandoned vehicles that are in Edgewood? I can’t believe how many people leave cars to rot in that parking lot and nothing is done with them.

Is the hotel route pretty common? I'd imagine the cost might almost be a wash with the price of renting a place out there.

I used to have a car in sdf which I’d use twice a year, maybe. I let my friends use it too but otherwise it was in the same spot for months at a time. Parked it far away from the gate so I didn’t take a good parking spot from anyone.
The car looked like crap (and I’m being very generous) BUT it ran and was available to me when I needed it.
To you it probably looked like I left it there to rot but to me it was my savior when I’d end up in looneyville against my wishes (failed bidding, cancelled flight, etc)
PLEASE don’t give management any stupid ideas.
