Took my wife forever to find an open spot....

 

That's the only place to park

 

She loves her car so I am forced to talk a country mile every time I ride with her.

 

Nice day for a run around the Cape.

 

have her drop you off at the door

It definitely works. We saturated the bag with a spray bottle. The untreated side got soaked, the treated side continued to bead. I'm pretty impressed. How long it last is the question.

 

Been doing that to my son for years and now it's payback time... now that he has a new car, he does the same thing to me.

 

damn. I’m bad about that, but not that bad. I would be kinda between the white car and the chevy/gmc truck.

 

If there is any curb or divider in the parking lot, she will park there to limit the exposure of other vehicles.

 

Yep I do that as well. and i get as close to the curb as i can, and some times i even park one side of the truck on it.

edit: like where those trees are between you and the building.

But for some odd reason, people still park next to me?

 

That's pretty funny, because when we came out of Target there was a car beside her Subaru. She was highly pissed.

 

Genuinely irritated or somewhat amusedly irritated?

It's a little ridiculous to be upset that someone parks next to you. If she is that uptight about personal space for her car, buy her a bike and keep the Subaru in the garage.

Or maybe she can buy some orange cones and block every possible parking space next to her..

 

Lol, I think she just expected that no one else would bother parking that far out. She thought they would at least put a space between them. However I said something along the lines of the cone as well.

 

In a parking lot that big, and with that many empty spots why does someone need to park right next to her(or anyone for that mader) they can easily park 3 or 4 spots a way and they will most likely not be next to anyone either.

 

There's posts on TW about members purposely parking next to people who are obviously trying to park away from everybody else, so the larger public probably does too.

If someone writes "NICE PARK JOB ASSHOLE" or puts a business card on her window saying she parks like a douchebag, it's probably posted on TW already with a picture.

 

See my last post. I'd not be surprised that for each person who parks in the middle of nowhere in an empty parking lot, there's a person who will park next to them on purpose.

In any event, I'm not in the business of telling people how to park. But I was wondering why it would make someone angry to have someone park next to them. It's a parking lot, each spot is for a car to park in regardless of any other circumstances the drivers might think separates them from anybody else.

There is no reason someone can't park next to her, either, so it's a wash. Anyway, I was just curious. It's a short life in a small world, parking lots and cars are pretty small potatoes.
