Selective Parking
So my girl gets mad at me how we always have to walk further to movies, dinner, or anywhere we go cause I won't park near certain objects or cars. She laughs, gets mad, and tells me Im too cautious and paranoid too. Today, she goes out with some friends to see a movie. I tell her, when she parks the car, to park in either the parking structure, or way in the back so the car won't be touched. Her being the "smart one" parks near a bunch of unmanned grocery carts. About 2 hours later I get a call about how a cart has hit her car. Once i saw the car I couldn't believe the dent that was left in her brand new car. Now we have to get whole front bumper and driver side fender replaced after I just did a detail job on it with my BF products. Such a sad day today.

Re: Selective Parking
I do the exact same thing and get the same response from my Mrs.
Knock on wood, but if anything were to happen to her car, at least I too could say "I told you so" lol..

Re: Selective Parking
Both my wife and I are very picky parkers. We don't mind walking at all, an extra 30 yards walking is better than a door ding. Sometimes we can't find spot far enough away.
We will decide which car we are going to drive depending on what the parking will be like. Our 2004 4-Runner will get parked anywhere and it doesn't have a mark or dent on it. My wife's Lexus has been babied but has one door ding from that one time we had to park next to someone. I don't park my Mini next to anyone, I'd rather drive around while she shops and pick her up when she's done :-) But I can usually find a lonesome spot somewhere.

I'm the same way. I always park in the back of the lot. My girlfriend wants to stab me....

Having 4 cars for 2 people is nice sometimes. I'll park my work van in the front door if I can. It gets waxed ever two years weather it needs it or not. I have just discovered AIO's and it'll be getting that from now on.

Re: Selective Parking
what I don't get is the magnetic feature that a nice shiny car seems to have in a parking lot.
There will be 20 spaces in the row we are in that are closer to the store and I will be 5 spaces away from the nearest car and yet when we get back out someone will have parked right next to us. Leaving 19 spaces that would have gotten them closer to the store.
We do the same thing with picking the vehicle we like less for the worse parking lots. Ironically though it has gotten less door dings through the years
