How many spots do you take parking?

[ron10]

taking two spots in a parking lot is just like begging to be keyed.
take one spot and park in the lower 40.that is what i do.

I saw a Ford GT in an Apple Bees parking lot, parked in one spot with everyone else. Your Camaros aren't that special to take up 2 spots.. lol

Edit: One spot by the curb or very far away. My wife likes it, because I always princess park her....

1 spot, just further out away from people.

Just one here, but way out in the boodocks, it is also a good excuse to just walk a little bit more for a little exercise.
Lots of times I will usually find other nice cars and muscle cars to park next to. I figure if they have a nice car then they would appreciate you taking a little extra care getting out of your nice car. I have learned to not park next to dirty, dinged, rusty, crappy pieces of $hit cars that obviously the owner doesn't care about. I also stay away from any construction/utility/ work trucks, especially the ones with the service beds.
If you take up two spots (even out in the boondocks) people will go out of their way to adjust your paint job to automatically ruin your car property value, or even make it so you are looking to purchase a new set of tires. This day and age many folks out there are miserable and cannot stand to see others making a life for themselves and having decent things. When you do something like take up two spots then you are just asking for it IMHO.

I keep reading the comments about cars getting keyed because someone parked in two spots. Does this really happen? I have never actually met someone who has had this happen to them because they double parked. Usually, if you car gets this type of treatment, it means that you did more than piss someone off because you took up two spots.

1 just waaaaaaaaaay in the back. Parking like a "dick" is just asking for your car to get keyed.

This. I usually go for one far out next to an island of concrete that doesn't have a huge tree next to it.

This. I also make a point of not parking under trees. I've had cars get water inside the cabin due to leaves blocking the drain on the evaporator housing.

IF I have to park in a public parking lot, 1 spot far far away from any other cars.

I've parked near Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Maseratis, and all other sorts of exotic cars that cost more than double or tripple our cars and if one spot is good enough for them then its definitely more than good enough for my 40K Camaro. Don't get me wrong I love my car and park far enough away to feel safe about it but I'll never take more than one spot.

I only take up one spot, but it is always way out in BFE. My car is special to me and it is worth the extra distance to try and keep it free of dings. There are too many inconsiderate idiots in this world who have zero regard for other peoples property to park it in any old spot.
