Default Re: Parking Lots / Parking Spaces

A month or so ago I parked my car as far away from the mall entrance as I could, I had dropped the wife of at the doors. The area was quite empty except for a nice BMW with a couple getting out of it. I parked right beside them, they looked at me a bit strange, as I got out I told them that my car would protect one side of their car and they would protect one side of mine, they thought about it, laughed and said thanks. So if someone parks next to you in the waste lands of the car park remember that and not scrape their car side with your key.

When I got back to the wife waiting at the door she complained that I had been a long time, I told her I parked so far away I had to wait for a taxi.

She always laughs when I park far away from the crowded areas, so I tell her to look at her 18 month old car with its dings and scrapes before she says anything. I am none to sure which ones she has put in and which ones others did. I know that she did the curb rash on one of the wheels, she admitted that. She was really ticked when I told her that as soon as you hear the scrape, stop and reverse off the curb and not continue to drive on like she obviously did, resulting in a 360 degree scuff and before you say it, it will not buff out.
