Stupid parking lot tricks: a new twist

I would never park across multiple spaces, even in the back. That's like asking for some one to mess up your ride. Being that obvious about protecting it will IMO just attract someone who wants to be an ahole.

I agree totally... It irritates the living hell out of me when somebody takes up all 4 parking spaces... it REALLY makes people want to tear up your ride. Parking in the back is great, but don't be an asshole about it.

I stumbled into this group quite by accident this afternoon, and began to read this thread thinking a bunch of redneck guys were going to be teaching each other a new way to burn rubber in the parking lot or something equally as stimulating. *groan*. Instead i found a group of intelligent articulate people with their tongues planted firmly in their cheeks and the thread was a blast. Thanks for a great read! I'd love to add something memorable to leave you with, but i'm laughing so hard i can't see straight! Next time? Thanks again !

New way to burn rubber? Rev it up to 4k RPMs or so & drop the clutch. Pee on the tires first if you want some longer burnouts.

Glad you found the thread amusing... I did as well.. but it blew my mind how idiotic some people can be. I wasn't kidding when I wrote that JD Adams would probably be in jail if somebody did that to Charlene... whew he'd be soooooo pissed off... wouldn't be so humorous then. Oh well... Sh*t happens ;D.

Ahhhhh! Someone with a sense of the rediculous has stumbled upon a pocket of mirth..... And welcome you are!!!!!! At least by this fun lovin' humorous guy!!!!! And to be named after one of my old time fave songs, too!!! Though I would NEVER say 'slow that Mustang down...' ; )

** I still remember going to germany years ago. It was so nice to be ** away from the all the LCD morons I have to put up with here at home. ** Everyone had their shit together in germany, from the simplist store ** clerk on up. I was there for work, but it was vacation from stupidity, ** rudeness, and all the stuff we are talking about in this thread.

Only once did I have an experience like that, while on a working vacation in a small town in Idaho in the early 90's. People were friendly, respectful and polite. People drove slowly through town and waved at their neighbors as they passed. Young ladies smiled and said "Hello!" as they walked by. I thought I'd died and gone to heaven.

I do plan to return someday. Perhaps to stay for a very long time.

** I wish I was mechanically inclined enough to be able to fix up an old ** beater and use that for these kind of trips. No go unfortunately...

No mechanical inclination required. All you need is $100 bucks and a keen eye for a premium beater car; one that looks awful, but runs okay. Just stay close to home in case it dies. I only put bucks into mine because I have to commute 70 miles/day through some pretty rough territory.

I'm gonna keep that in mind. Something smaller that uses less gas would be great. I have roadside assistance and towing both with my AAA membership and my insurance so I can go about 50 miles out and still get it towed back for free. :-)
