Just coming back to say thank you!
I take it that the bottom line is as always, to be sensible and considerate. Yes, we have traveled extensively in the US, so I'm familiar with what towns and cities look like. I think my main concern was with parking in a residential area in suburbia. A place where you would be ok parking a sedan but clearly, a huge rig would stand out. I have seen many RV's in people's driveways in such areas - but rarely parked on the street.
So, my take from this discussion is -
1. If you can, avoid residential streets and park in parking lots.
2. If you must park on a street - make sure there are no signs saying you can't. It's best to ask a local if you see one and let them know you'll be moving soon.
