I did see a gentleman take a very new looking truck and 5th wheel combo and manage to not think about the trailer taking a inside path to the trucks path and literally ripping the axles off of it on the bollards that protect the gas pumps. This was about 1/2 mile away from a camping world on an exit that has not much else on it. I hope he didn't just get the trailer minutes before.
