Sorry for the crappy pic; this was take through with my cell phone through a 3rd-story window in my office. The real douchebag in this scene is not the Volt driver, but rather the BMW driver who parked in front of the charging station.

Took this Friday night at the local mall. It was a packed lot with cars circling to find spots.

I would have fit my F-150* right in between those two guys.


*Disclosure: I don't really have an F-150, but if I did, I would have done it.

Now, I did drive down in my 30-year-old, well setup 944. But, I parked in a far corner of the parking lot away from the heavy turnover of spaces. When I got closer to the front door, I saw this d'bag parked nearby the store entrance. Yep, that is an Alpine Renault.

This Alpine attends C&C in CT

Some cops forget they are representatives of the law, and not above the law....

He parked there to get the key for the potty.

That's how I might park that rig.

edit On second thought, I'd try to stay as close to the lightpole as possible. I can pull forward and go to the right, don't have to turn left.
