Default You see a beautiful car parked away from all the other vehicles..

Say it's a nice Vette or Porsche and the owner intentionally parked it away from all of the other cars because they think the car is made of diamonds. Do you intentionally park right next to it?

No, i dont like walking, AND i had a beautiful stang that I always parked way far out and the effer had more dings and dents and impacts than any other vehicle I ever owned. Goddamn assholes. I respect others property, so I'd leave it be.

He's made a value judgment that the extra few steps are worth a little extra safety to better protect something he values. You wanna fuck with that? Why? Jealousy? I don't understand.

If they block 2 spots but its far away, I can respect that. Do it up close in a crowded lot things wont end as well for them.

my car gets dinged, hit/backed into all the time at work, bu its in a shit neighborhood and a lot of people have no respect for other peoples stuff, thats why I iwl never own a nice car while I work there

Agreed. If they take two spots up at the end of the lot, I could care less. Take two spots up close to the storefront(s) and they are just asking for it.

I park at the back of the parking lot alot of times.

I don't want my car dinged/paint chipped/etc. People can't even park straight. Do I want kids who don't understand the concept of *don't hit the car next to you* opening their door into my car? No. I paid good money for a nice car, I'd like to keep it that way.

I don't take up 2 spots when I park. I park properly, I just do it out away from everyone else.

It annoys me when out of ALL those spots, someone will park in the spot directly next to me. Leave a damn space. Otherwise, you're missing the whole point.

The "public" in general are assholes. Depending on their thoughtfulness to keep your car free of dents and dings is a loosing proposition. I don't fault someone for recognizing this and taking the steps necessary to keep something they like in good shape.

I'm plenty active, no worries, I wont be getting fat anytime soon.

Let me clarify, I dont like walking in parking lots. The longer it takes me to get in and get out, the longer I have to be around crowds of people I dont know and dont want to be around. Therefore, the faster in, the faster out.
