Default Some People Just Dont Know How To Park

Went shopping yesterday at target @ 1960 and i parked my T/A all the way in the back parking lot to avoid getting hit or scratched. When i returned this Idiot in an SUV parked so DAMN close to my car (drivers side) that i had to get in through the passenger side. I was pissed i noticed that of all the other empty spaces left he just had to park nxt to mine. Well just cant wait til after January so i dont have to drive my T/A as daily and start to drive Silverado

People love to do that. They think it's funny to park right next to someone who is obviously trying to keep their car looking nice.

I think it's funny to see their cars with no air in the tires.

Thats how I taught a Malibu not to park in the 24 hour ATM anymore... If you keep a valve core remover in your glove box you can save yourself some time.

That sounds like a fun idea. I am glad I drive my truck places. A 94 Ranger with that maroon/red color are a dime a dozen and cheap to fix should it get dinted. I like the valve stem idea too.

I had someone at walmart park 6" from my drivers door. I'm sure they were happy to find their tires flat when they came back out. Small rocks in the valve stem caps can do wonders. Next time I will have a core remover. It does make things quicker.

I feel u guys. last saturday i parked in the back grass parking lot of my favorite bar, teh next day, I notice someone lightly hit the lft front corner of my car, nothin major, just some minor buffing, but still, I bought the car from the original owner in may only 39k, mint as mint can be, and this ****, u can;t have anything nice these days, but if i see a white car with black scuffs on the back bumper, im gonna lose control and **** some **** up, I value my car more than human life. Dogs and cars are truly mans best freinds.

depending on how close they park, and how empty the parking lot is, my free customization skills will vary

screw a valve core remover. that takes time... unscrew cap, pull out tool, unscrew valve core, remove valvecore, (optional) replace cap so it looks ok...

OR

pull pocket knife out, stick tire, replace in pocket.
(muuuuuch better)
