Cute but the only time I stopped at a Walmart I was told by the mall security officer that if I stayed there My motorhome would be towed and I would be arrested. I was told that there was no place in Georgia where it was OK to spend the night in a Walmart parking lot.

You do have to check with the individual WalMart. However, you don't have
to worry at Pilot/Flying J, Loves, or TA. It's not any noisier than some
WalMart lots. The quietest WalMart I've ever stayed in was in
Murfreesboro, TN. The noisiest was in Carmi, IL. Everyone in town must
have driven past to see "the new guy in town." Generally a parking lot
sweeper rolls by at some point during the night.
There's an app for the iPhone that tells you which WalMarts are OK and
which aren't. However, I prefer the RV section at Flying J.

Flying J is a MAJOR truckstop outfit. IIRC, they
merged with the Pilot chain a year or two ago.
They may not be nationwide, but many are located
on I-40 across the country.
They offer fuel discounts on gas and Diesel fuel
plust other benefits to RVers.

Flying J went bankrupt. Pilot then purchased them. Many of the sites became Pilot but some are still operated as Flying J.
