HOWEVER ... I saw this at Home Depot Sunday and HAD to take a picture .... parden the quality, its only my camera phone.

DO YOU OWN THIS BIMMER SUV?????

He took up FOUR spots. My wife commented we needed four MINIs to park around him and trap him in there!

Who cares. He's all by himself and the parking lot looks empty.

Can't we all just get along.

Ouch, my rear end is still stinging from his paddle... But I still wouldn't even go that political even in the PI thread.

Wrong answer. The parking lot was mobbed. Your looking at the last three rows way back. Everything closer was taking. If you were just pulling in, that is what you say.

He not only stuck out like a sore thumb, as many ppl do not drive down the lanes but across the parking spaces, he was an accident waiting to happen and a prime target for SUV haters just looking for an excuse to vandalize.

There is NO excuse for parking that like. If a cop was around, I would have pointed it out and usually I would never get involved in such a thing. Taking FOUR spaces is lame.
