Not to sound harsh but if my only means of traveling the country were to have to stay in parking lots it just wouldn't be worth it for me. That just doesn't sound enjoyable to me.

I have found a great deal of difference in what people consider to be camping and what they enjoy. I enjoy travel, visiting the national parks and other great scenic areas. That often means driving considerable distances. At the end of the day, I am interested in a quiet, safe and convenient place to pull off the road and spend the night. I have endless choices with a truck camper. For those who have slides, need to lower jacks or need hook ups, choices are more limited. Walmart parking lots are not designed for any of those needs. I have noticed Walmart has become more restrictive. They still welcome RVers, but I seen signs limited stays to 24 hours. Some Walmart lots have been taken over my workcampers and those who are just trying to live cheap.
