I sent an email to them today about it. Got no response. The jeep was parked there again...why would you continue parking in that tiny spot? IMO it's to be a jerk.

Haha i think you kinda walked into that one when you parked over the line, had you parked within there Probably would have been enough space to squeeze in. That is a nice truck though, got anymore pictures of it? It would have been a shame if the jeep had a passenger and he dinged your door.

There was literally not enough room to walk between the two vehicles and if I was all the way in the line there still wouldn't have been room to open the door because that parking spot the jeeps in is literally the width of the vehicle. The driver side tires of the jeep were ON the curb. Anyway - I won't park there again and I can see (although I don't agree b/c I'm biased) a slight offense on my part.

Re pictures - it's been crappy weather almost the entire time I've had it (2 weeks) so I don't have many pics. These were both taken at the dealership.

I have a new Ford F 150 for my daily driver and never ever park close to any store or people. Just asking for it if you do.

Very nice. Seeing your truck I had to get online to check out the Frontier. Which package do you have? My dad is considering a truck again so we been browsing for another Taco, he's a Toyota guy. I may steer him to check out the Frontier this time.

That Jeep owner was still an A55 hole. Parking in and not noticing if the driver won't make it through is just plain inconsiderate and just asking for it. All it takes is the wrong person miff.

It's the basic Pro4x package which isn't that basic. It has Nav, pwr windows locks, cruise, HEATED cloth seats which I can't say I've ever seen as a factory option but Nissan does it. I think the only package is the luxury package which includes a roof rack, sun roof and leather. The Frontier design is pretty long in the tooth and now that the new Titan is announces at Detroit car show I expect the Frontier to be next.

Pro4x is a selectable 4WD vehiclr with an electronic locker on the rear Dana 44 axle.

I showed a buddy of mine and he said "I'd have taken a hammer to it." So yes there are those that would. In all honesty, being human, if I had a valve stem puller I would've been tempted to use it.

Found this at work, apparently someone beat me to the punch of leaving a note.

Won't you try parking the correct way and then we'll see if the room is adaquent enough before you start issuing complaints.

Why don't you take a trip here and see for yourself since you don't believe me when I say it isn't a full size space?

Let me say why I don't think it's a full sized space. I don't really think there's legislation around it but parking spaces less than 8 feet wide are generally deemed compact car parking only. This parking space is right at or below 7 feet wide. I don't argue that I'm on the line...I honestly thought no one parked there. I notice that the person driving that jeep parks there everyday regardless of how close the vehicle next to them is. I've since decided to park elsewhere since this person thinks (however erred in judgment I think they are) it's an okay parking spot.

This is the kind of parking that makes me want to go postal!!!! My wife and I saw this one as we were leaving the food king! No tag displayed or handicap plates. It also seemed that he had no problem walking. He was able to walk even better than most of us. I even said to him that he was parked in a handicapped parking spot, however he just ignored us and went on in!!

Is this in Travis county? I am part of a volunteer program and deputized to issue tickets ($500 min fine) for violations such as this. Please PM me if you are interested in learning more about the program or if you would like my number or the hotline number to report these violators when you encounter them.

Also, please be aware ..... disabilities are not always visible. Just because someone does not show difficulties walking does not mean they do not have a legitimate reason for parking in a handicap spot with a valid plate or placard.
