There's a lot more than you might think- I know of four within 50miles of my place. One even has this cool sign that's a couple wrecked trucks sitting on poles you can see from the highway.

Spaldings is freaking HUGE, Heavy Duty Trucks, Cars, Trucks oh my lorddddddddddddddddddddd I get lost in there sometimes. I live about 30/40 miles from them and have to actually go up transmission hunting tomorrow. But they have I think one decent size lot for trucks and quite possibly another I cant remember for sure
