If you wear so much jewelry that you scratch your car just opening the door, you may be a douche bag.

I aways use my left hand to adjust myself prior to entering so it'll be my right.

Really, I mean really. I'll ask you to keep your opinions on this subject to yourself sir. Thankfully we don't have to ask the Queen if we can do something in America. We took care of that BS back in 1776.

You tell him Reb. Hopefully he'll never be in a situation where he has to protect his family or himself. Maybe he can sing a few lines of kum-by-yah and see how far that gets him.

Default Right hand, Left hand

Funny someone should ask this question and after deep meditation and retrospection I have a become enlightened with the answer many have sought. I have come to the realization that if I am approaching my car from the front, I tend to use my left hand to pull the door towards me as I come around the door and proceed to enter the vehicle. If, however, I am approaching my car from the rear (he said, "rear") I tend to pull the door open with my right hand and once again proceed to enter the vehicle. I hope this solves the long sought answer and we have now all become enlightened.

I don't use my hands, just leave the top off and the window down so I can do a jump in. Really fun to do...until you miss with the trailing leg and land a little short.
