    He'll probably read that and wonder why some loser is confessing his sins on his window instead of in church.

    Nice parking job and what a way to advertise for your business. Both passenger side tires up on the curb. This one deserves bonus points.

    I'll admit to parking like that with my truck if I cant get a good approach angle. Long wheelbases suck for easy parking.

    My guess is the guy driving the truck worked for the business and wasn’t the owner. I imagine if the owner knew how Juan or Julio was representing his business he likely wouldn’t be too happy.

    But, in the drivers defense, it’s tough to fit a full size truck in just about any parking spot these days. I don’t know if there is a standard size for parking spots but if there is I bet it’s been getting smaller over the years. I don’t have a dually but I’ve been squared up and centered in spots and the stripes were maybe six inches from my tires on either side.

    I've noticed this as well. I call it the Airplane Seat Effect. Squeeze more and more parking spaces into the same sized area to accommodate more customers. If the customers car doors get dinged it's not usually going to adversely effect their bottom line and it's no skin off of their knees.

    On a positive note.. the lifted truck usually won't get dinged by the smaller car (even crammed in a small space)
