The owner of an expensive 40' Class A MH has priority over a peon owning a simple TT. He can park wherever and whenever he likes (ummm, I think?)

Perhaps this happened? The suspected owner of the 1989 40 ft MH was trying to get his wife to the hospital after a severe choking accident, oh let's say a "Ham Sandwich". He remembered how quickly Moma Kass lead singer of the famed Momas and the Papas, died when she choked to death on a "Ham Sandwich" just three decades ago. He ran to the seat of the Motor Home and started up the rig. Running back and forth helping his poor wife who's color was approaching blue. In his haste, he caused the gravel to give way under heavy acceleration, ultimately spinning out and going crossways. He was torn between saving his wife and driving. His heart was racing trying to perform Himclich on his wife, and getting MH unstuck so he could get to nearest hospital, trying not to destroy his brother in-laws used MH. Finally he abandoned the effort, got his wife to the toad, after performing a crude, yet effective, emergency Tracheotomy, using a Ball Point Pin shaft as a makeshift airway! Something he learned during 3 tours in Korea, where incidently he earned the Congresional Medal of Honor, for saving "7" of his fellow solders held in a makeshift heavely guarded stockade, outside Seoul. He did it alone unarmed and bleeding! Now while his wife's life is teetering in the balance, he failed to notify the manager of the facility of blocking another campers spot! So is he still a jerk or preoccupied?

At one time I had to use a storage lot for my trailer and it had assigned spots and my spot was a easy one to back into. So...........we went for a week long trip once and when we got back someone had parked their trailer in my spot. We unhooked our trailer and hooked up to the trailer in my spot and reparked it way over on the other side of the lot behind the storage building and reparked our trailer in "our" spot. We never had that fellow do that again.
From what I understand the other guy had called the cops thinking his trailer was stolen.

You folks are soooo lucky to be able to park at home, wish I could but the HOA would have kittens. If I ever buy another house it will come with space for covered TT storage and I'll add full hook ups.

It's funny; I have seen people that do things like this get flat tires. For some reason, 6 at once.


A valve core tool is pretty cheap.

On a side note if you were to remove the valve cores from someone's tires could that be considered a crime? It is not like the tires are ruined.....so vandalism would be a stretch. You aren't stealing anything if you leave the cores in a conspicuous place.

Tampering? Maybe? At best?
