What do you guys think of these parking spots?

Parked at best buy today.
thought it was okay to park there since there was a ford explorer parked to the right of me.
"reserved for fuel efficient vehicles only"
at the front of the store.

Those signs are not enforceable. They are on private property and there is no clear cut defintion of what a fuel efficient vehicle is. This is simply a request Best Buy is asking of people.

Of course if you do park there in a camaro, some jerk in a Prius is bound to give you grief!

I know a jerk who drives his wife's Prius right around the block. He has 3 cars of his own with gas hog V8's. Sometimes men wear pink panties I guess.
