Left the apartment today, and as I was driving past my husband's car, I noticed a scuff on the left front bumper. It's been parked on the street since he left on deployment, though I've been driving it off and on to keep it from sitting. How hard is it to parallel park on a residential street without hitting the cars around you?? Grrr...

I know what you mean. If that happened 20 years ago, they probably would have left a note. It's the degradation of society.

I've learned to adjust my drive to the trip. In other words, if I'm going somewhere where I can't watch my car, I drive my beater. My friends think I am being over protective, right up until the minute they have something like this happen to them.
One time, I went into my friends apartment just long enough to feed her cats. I had driven her there so we could then go get a bite to eat afterwards. We left her car at a friends. Well, when we came out of the apt, we found that my 02 Z06 had been vandalized.
Do I hate people? You betcha. Now I conceal and carry. I hope, for both theirs and my sake, that I never catch them. They'll be dead and I'll be in jail for killing a POS.LS15 Power! Another LSx engine coming soon.

My friends are always busting my stones for parking way out, even in my daily driver. I just chose to keep it looking nice. They can't understand that, yet they wonder why their cars are full of dings and scratches.SOLD: 2002 Trans Am WS.6 - Black on Black - 6 Speed

Here's how I park almost every where I go. This is actually at my office. I have a private stall and gave the spot next to me to my office manager.
Another shot.

That is too funny. Looks like you couldn't even fit a sheet of paper in there.
I will NEVER double park. It's just asking for trouble. My buddy's old Camaro was keyed at our local mall a few years back for doing just that. My T/A never sees retail parking lots, but my Wife's car and my Bravada do. I never go for the convenient spot. A little walking never hurt anyone.SOLD: 2002 Trans Am WS.6 - Black on Black - 6 Speed

I'm not surprised, just annoyed. They did it to my T/A too before I sold it... almost parked in the same place. I went looking for corresponding scrathes on a nearby car carrying a hammer that time. I'm really nervous about what's going to happen when I leave town for a month. I don't know if I'll be able to lock his car in the garage, because they're supposedly doing "improvements" and need the garages to be vacant for a week. I may have to leave it on the street, unless I can find a way to get it somewhere safe, but I don't know where. No nearby friends with houses or anything.
