mmm Zaxby's, one of the few things I miss from the south. Wish they'd start expanding up north!

I should of snapped a picture today...

I am in a downtown parking lot that is really small and a tight fit even for my 370z. There were literally like 10 f350 trucks parked in this lot. some were extended cab/bed trucks. 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 :ugh2: :p

Waiz 05-17-2012 06:35 PM

This was at our monthly meet last week, notice that the distance from the curb gets worse as you get further away :icon17:

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. :tup:

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.

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? :shakes head:

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

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 :p

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..

urdeliveryguy 05-19-2012 12:57 AM

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.

canes7 05-19-2012 07:46 AM

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.

I saw this at Home Depot this morning in a near-empty parking lot. It boggles the mind.

MacLean 05-19-2012 12:20 PM

Both of these trucks owners are stupid f**ks.

I am puzzled now. I am completely in the lines and mostly straight. Does being backwards count as "crappy"?

my #1 fear, a minivan with a mom who is most likely rushing around and not paying attention

Like everyone else, seems to be an affliction with trucks and minivans, mostly.

I understand the fear. It seems those with kids in public think they can do whatever they want because they have kids.

However I think minivans can be safe to park near as the front doors are short and have no reach then the rear doors slide. If you could keep the rugrats from fingering the paint then it would be perfect.

This was today at walmart, and yes it was packed....

Not that I park close or anything

ShinyBlueZ 05-19-2012 05:50 PM

1) He's allowed. It's a Camry.
2) Coincidentally he has the word "DlCK" on his license frame.

i can take that parking curb no problem...

Sibze 05-20-2012 05:23 PM

Ouch. That sucks

Bucketlist2012 05-20-2012 07:11 PM

Looks like a Brain fart to me...

No one with a Z car since 2004 would try to clear a curb...Just ask my Wife...

She won't do it again ...Hopefully..

I can't clear my driveway without angles and very low speed, much less any curb over a few inches. Looks like the driver is standing there with the tow truck guy - should have stopped and asked him what happened :icon17:

Dude, it's a truly sad day when we have to see the Nismo represented in such a way! :facepalm:

keb370z 05-20-2012 11:00 PM

Proof as to why you shouldn't back into spaces. If he had been going forward, he'd have hit the lip and realized there was a curb there. :bowrofl:
