Easy one. You're compensating for your huge, er, equipment.

The truck owner isn't.

It must make people with big trucks feel better about themselves parking next to small cars. I came out of the bar two nights ago to this

On the occasion that I have to park next to a large vehicle, I make an effort to park with the bumper is a little further then the family-sized SUV next to me. After I get out, I realize that my MINI is only using a small portion of the actual lined area .

Got this pic a few weeks ago at a soccer tourney. When I parked, I was trying to figure out whether I could back up far enough so his door would just swing over my bonnet and I wouldn't have to worry about door dings. (Don't really worry about that next to something like this - I figure anyone who would drop this kind of $$$ on their vehicle respects other vehicles.)

Lol I was looking for that "I drive a MINI what are you compensating for" bumper sticker and found this.

So from the depths of the archives to the top it goes.

I got this photo last night
