WalMart, WalMart with warning

Walmarts - Walmart stores have tried to promote themselves as the trucker and RV driver's friend, providing space in their parking lots for overnight stays. This has declining of late in some locations due to complaints from the stores' neighbors and local municipal ordnances prohibiting truck parking overnight, as well, it must be said, by the bad habits that some truckers and RVers employ. However, Walmarts still have large parking spaces and many still allow trucks and RVs to park, so it is appropriate to display them on a traveller's map. Besides, that, they sometimes provide really necessary services (such as pharmacy services) combined with space for temporary oversized vehicle parking, at least. Finally, they are conveniently everywhere.
