We go to places where there's plenty of parking and if that's filled we'll go somewhere else. Interestingly enough, I'm the one most likely to ding it as my truck is parked right next to it in a tight garage. I have a death grip on my door every time I get out of my truck.

When I lived in a high rise I thought my 350Z was safe as I had a Maserati on my left and my brother's BMW parked on the right.
Over 3 months my brother put a dozen dings into my passenger door. He refused to improve his door opening skills until I ran a cable through his tie down hooks and padlocked it around the concrete curb. Left a nice note explaining why he was grounded. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk |

Last summer, i went to park at a mall, and there was a back section with 2-3 empty rows of about 10-15 empty parking spots each row, im like awsome... so i park in the middle of it all, completely secluded from the other cars.
I come back an hour later, tell me how i find one person parked right beside me, and all the other 30-40 parking spots empty This is a good representation of what it looked like

38% of cars get dinged in their life. IIRC big retail parking lots are like 2x more dangerous than parking garages, street parking, etc. I mainly park by expensive cars or just walk further. I absolutely avoid parking by trucks and SUV/kidmobiles at any cost.

I got one ding behind the door on the rear fender on the drivers side.
I would like to see someone put a ding in my truck's door. The truck has a 2" lift and has DOM tube nerf bars just below the doors. Someone throws their door open. They will hit the nerf bars and dent the edge of their door. I've already seen it happen.
