What does this have to do with the OP post?

 

Guess you missed where he said "for grins". Correctly reading would have brought to your attention he was testing a theory he had.

But hey I never worked for gm engineering, maybe I can't see what you see and I am the incorrect one. Doubt it though.

 

The speed limit, as the OP said he was doing, is hardly "too slow." In the eyes of LEO's, it's "just right." I do the speed limit in my town and no faster; the LEO's here WILL give a ticket to anyone going even 2-3 miles over the posted limit.

 

[QUOTE=Evil-Twin;1588458970] taking two parking spots would only **** me off. and I would want to draw a picture of two spaces on your car with my key.. and " X" out the drawing with a no.. and then draw out a parking spot with a correct parking one car in one spot..

I park out away from other people to preserve my pristine paint job, and although I may comment to my wife when I see it, I really couldn't care less if someone takes up and extra park as long as I can still find one.
In regards to tailgating, it normally happens to me, but from jacked up trucks, mustangs, Camaros and ricers. I just ignore them or hit the brakes a couple of times.

 

Doesn't look like they were parked too close...maybe they were just proud and honored to be parked next to a Corvette ?

 

My issue concerns being stopped at a light and some wahoo puts his vehicle an inch from my C5 rear. Not sure what he's trying to prove but having brains is not one of them.

 

You'll get ran over by a lifted F250 driving the limit here.

 

Just one of the many reasons why I moved north. Houston drivers are nuts.

 

I'd never do that under normal conditions. As I mentioned, it was Black Friday. You can see the parking lot is empty, and I did it, knowing I may catch some crap from one of the very few people who came in to work that day. I think the total was four of us, and there's about 2,000 spaces on the campus.

Nice. Shows your true character.

 

I actually could not get my door all the way open. Also, it's not about how close the other car is to mine. It's why park next to me at all, when there are a million other spaces, all closer to the entrance to the building. This is where my thoughts on herding/schooling instinct come in.

S.C.

 

I would do it just because I know that I'd be protecting a nice car from someone else who doesn't care as much as I do. This is especially true when the Corvette is parked in a corner spot with only one adjacent spot. I'm just nice like that.

 

Maybe he felt safer parking next to your car, For now the US is a free country and can park where ever he wants.

 

 

Tailgating is the norm down here in Texas.

Most drivers here lack talent and skills when it comes to driving.

You get use to it after a while ...

 

how very true ! It also seems that a lot of them don't want to be behind a Vette (or some other nice sports type car) and will drive as fast as necessary to get around them and cut over in front then slow down !!

 

This shows how rude and ignorant some jackwagon Corvette Owners are... The guy in the jeep just sent the owner a message... the corvette owner is lucky the jeep did ride up on the corvette to take the spot .



My point being when Corvette owners like this act like Jackwagons.. its easy fro some people toi get the idea that corvette oners are jack wagons.

" Shows my true Character" ( Black 02 ) ? You make the jack wagon poster of the day... I suggest a remedial reading course at a local community college

as far as me reading the Op's just for grins.. I was pointing out that it is a bad idea. and why.

Ive been on this forum for 13 + years, I have at least 50 post on this subject of making your car look special and how parking in the boon docks could be very costly.. And why do some people say, that anyone touching their car is in for an *** whipping.. as if they are the toughest guy on the planet.. it would be nice if this jack wagon confronted the Jeep owner and caught him pointing out that his Corvette is not so special and when the owner put up a fuss, The jeep owner also kicked his *** for being an ***.
Its stupid to take up two parking spots, its stupid to park out in the boonies where some less fortunate jack wagon could vent his frustrations on your car... why put you car in harms way??? I don't have one ding or dent in my car.. it has 100,000 miles and I take it everywhere, but I park smart.. I park close, and I park where the eyes of passing shoppers can prevent any coward from disresep0cting my car...

Always between the lines and always on an end and never next to a two door car.

 

I do occasionally get that around here. The other night I had someone following me extremely close on a country 45mph road. I sped up to about 55, so did they, 60, still on my azz. 90 and they fell way back finally. And yes I know doing 90 in a 45 isn't so smart.

Also had a fullsize van riding my tail down a winding mountain road. 45mph speed limit. in that case I had room to pull over and let him by, then he slows down.

 

Here is another safe way around someone who is getting too close... put on your flashers and slow down.. either the guy will back off or go around,, in either case, it will protect you from a rear ender.. putting on the brakes can **** some people off, but flashers can indicate that you are having a problem, when in fact the problem is the guy on your bumper.
He doesn't know that because he is a jack wagon.

 

I don't think anyone could be more stupid than you to post such a remark.... do you live in a cave? do you have any teeth.. you could be the poster child for inbreeding...
