Really, you think your car is worthy of two parking spots? Again, corvette drivers are far more courteous and respectful, and just plain awesome.

Unfortunately not limited to Mustang owners, just one of many idiots.

I'm a Vette guy through and through, but I do like the Shelby Mustangs, even when their owners park like that...


I wish I could say I never see Corvette owners park like that, but saying it would make me a liar.

That particular generation Mustang looks like a brick on wheels. I have never been a fan of the Mustang styling until the current generation.

Coutesy is very important, but I know why he did it, lots - not all, but lots of people seem to not give two ykw about other people’s property. I am always concious of where I park because of it. But it’s just as dangerous to take up two spaces, some folks might do more than take offense at that as well... sad but true.

Yeah, like you’ve never seen a Corvette owner do the same thing It has very little to do about the car, but the car’s owner.

I understand a corvette taking up two spots. I mean isnt it hard to get the walker out of your car when someone is right next to you

Give him a break. He's trying to avoid crowds.

He parked like that so if needed the roll-back can approach his car from either end. Sorry, forgive me Lord and be with the pigmies in New Guinea.

Its not a Mustang thing, its just a driver wishing to protect his/her baby. However, as we've discussed in many previous threads, parking like that or any other manner that claims multiple spaces might just draw the retaliatory idiot to reek havoc upon said baby. Sure, there's plenty of unused spaces, sure he's not putting anyone out by parking like that, but some people just can't help making something out of nothing. Hmmm...

Since the lot is empty, IMO all he's doing is inviting a keyed paint job for being an a$$hole...

Any my response to this is, if the parking lot is so empty and there is hardly anyone there...why the need to take up two spots in the first place?

Doesn't matter if the parking lot is empty or full, taking up two spots is a completely ignorant move. People who do this say "well I don't want anyone to ding my car" as if taking up two spots prevents their car from being dinged by other means. I actually believe you draw more attention to yourself and increase your chances of some person "messing" with your car when you double park. It's just a completely ignorant "all about me" attitude. The same people who double park are usually ignorant ******** who couldn't give a damn about anyone else but themselves.

^ LOL!!
This....every time I see a Vette, it’s an old gray haired guy/couple driving it.
i personally would park out of the way of crowds like that but park appropriately in a single spot. There are douchers out there that will **** your ride up just for parking like that.
