They are versatile cars for sure. I love mine for road trips, hell I've even shot a coyote from my car while packing my guns. I don't drive mine during the winter, thank god, we have like 3 feet of snow right now. Theres nothing like being able to cruise around in 4th gear at 35 mph and still be able to out accelerate most cars haha. I definitely have made several trips to get groceries in the SS. I will park in the middle of the park lot all by myself, and when I come out some ******* will have parked right next to me. That pissess me off!

When I go to Walmart I always park far far away from everyone else. My girlfriend gets pissed because she feels there is no reason to have to walk so far away from the entrance

+1 on the DD. My car is the only one I have so it gets used for everything, including groceries and random running. I've also regularly fit myself, my brother, 2 snowboards, and all our snow gear and food for the day in my car. I love getting those looks when pulling into the resort.

I usually just find a parking space close enough to the front with enough space for me to be able to open the door halfway and get out of the TA ok and have not had the first door-ding in about 7 years of fbody driving, guess maybe I'm just lucky or something!

i'll admit i've picked up a large portable air conditioner and even a disassembled ikea couch in my vert.
drop the top and you've got extra space. it looks pretty ghetto with boxes extending a few feet above the roof line, but gets the job done.

I wish I could say parking as far away as possible would prevent shopping cart mishaps....but it doesn't. Parked my car in a Kroger lot in almost the farthest spot from the store with no cars around it. Came back and someone had taken a shopping cart and launched it at my car, scratching about 4-5in. up the front of the bumper through the clear coat -- when I came outside the cart was propped up on the bumper still (theres no way it wasn't deliberate). Went back and asked in-store security to contact me once they reviewed their surveillance tapes, but they never called me back.
