I almost could not leave the parking lot because they were blocking the aisles. Why drive such a huge truck downtown into highly congested areas? I don't understand why people commute in such ridiculously huge vehicles.

Maybe you stumbled upon an f350 meet

was leaving the local best buy today and thank god i was leaving. got into my car and these 2 knuckleheads pull in and park whereever they felt like it for the most part. the green on was first, he's not even close to being in one spot. and the black guy in the red just didn't give a damn. i bet he's never tow'd a damn thing with those mirriors either.

I was here first. What would he have done if I had been perfectly in my lines instead of hugging the wall like I usually do (for reasons like this)? Would he have just plowed right in and taken off my mirror?

i see trucks do this all the time...i used to think the same until i got a truck lol...sometimes big trucks need a lil wiggle room...

if i do it i always park in the booneys and try to only take the front and back spot, that way im not taking side spots too...

i found it very different parking my new truck verses my previous 370z

This was at our monthly meet last week, notice that the distance from the curb gets worse as you get further away

LunaZ · 05-17-2012, 06:53 PM

That's because real Z drivers back in?

I love how small and nimble our cars are. I was parked like the above picture today at a client, a foot away from the curb. My co-worker has a new 4 door Honda Accord, backed in as well but with the tire right on the curb, rear hanging over the curb/grass. Her car still stuck out further than mine.

Backing in to a previously defined empty space is a lot easier than backing out with the huge blind spots we have.

At first I backed in to be cool, I'll admit it, but then I did it just because it's easier on my nerves in the end.

Waiz · 05-18-2012, 08:18 PM

I hate it when people can park somewhere else and they park next to you like that, so unnecessary.

I think he was just trolling you lol

Bucketlist2012 · 05-18-2012, 09:04 PM

Man these lazy losers give trucks a bad name...

I have an F150, and I would never , ever, park like that...

I don't even hug the lines...If I get out and it looks wrong, I get back in and re-park it...

Oh that's right, I am not a lazy, loser.. I am more like a caring, successful, hard working Guy who respects other people..

Except these A -Holes.

With a bunch of GHay options on their trucks..

Check the dodge in the back. Perfect. I can see your point though with the big mirrors. But also i can park a ups truck in these spots no problem lol. I might stick out a bit n the front though as my truck is a bit longer.

That truck is hilarious. I think it's funny that these trucks get like 2 gallons per mile to start with then some wannabe redneck hangs every dumbass accessory off of it to double it's weight.
