He made my truck look little

[ependydad]

No chance he's towing with it...

Big fun towing with mud tires, huh?
Saw a jacked up pickup today-

Couldn't agree more. Probably not a person I would hang out with. Seems around here guys with trucks like that think they are above sliced bread. No thank you.

Big truck, small brain.

[ironj]

Well....mine may not be quite that tall (4.5 inch lift, that looks like 8"on the dually) but the tires are lt's and tow just fine save for a couple lost mpg? ...I will admit I put the stockers back on when I tow more than a couple hundred miles...,no 5ers for me, but I decided a a few months after I bought it any 5er I would want would be too much for the 250 anyway.........I do want a dually now, but would NEVER lift it....in that case it is stupid...defeats the whole purpose of a dually? ...so yeah....I guess I do agree....pretty much....lol

[Twisty]

^^I think that it's great that you get to do what you want to do.
Lost MPG's... your choice.
You run stock tires when you tow distance. Smart!

Ya gotta look at the parking job too. 2 spaces = arrogance

[ironj]

Not so much that im smart as I am cheap! ...lol...those nittos aint cheap and dont last as long as dem michillens !! Lol...but yeah...the 2 pkng space thing pisses me off!

I look at it more as ignorance.

[Twisty]

Ignorance is a state of being uninformed.
We all know what the lines are for.

Arrogance exalts the worth or importance of the person to an undue degree; proud contempt of others; lordliness; haughtiness; self-assumption; presumption.
The lines are there for regular, normal human beings to use.

that kinda dually parking is kinda common out here in the flats of west texas.......but usually its a 70yr old rancher/farmer, so we cut him some slack...LOL....the yups do it with their beemers and audis all the time too......i always thought it was a great way to piss off the wrong person and get your car keyed......if you gotta park like that, move it to the outskirts of the lot where no one parks or cares......i park way out just so i dont have to slither out of my truck....even then i still only use one dang space!!!

[asquared]

What a waste of a nice dually. Oh and yea the 2 space irritated me too. I collapse my mirrors to stay skinny with my truck. And since my truck is too long I try to park where there is something behind me so I can hangover and not block another spot (think grass median not sidewalk).

I thought those were Corvette owners.

It's just a joke.

[Brian and Michele]

Got to defend the two spaces parking, just alittle.

How many times have I parked well within my spot, to come out and find someone parked so close to my car/truck that I had to do Olympic style gymnastics to get into it. Way to many, so when I do "over park" I do it in the south forty.

I do this when I can't park in the "back 40". If I'm at a big box store or grocery type store, I park as far away from others as I can. Walking is good for me and it keeps my baby away from all the idiots that want to slam their doors into her.

Very good. I like the clarification.

I hear ignorance and stupidity confused a lot, too. As you said, an ignorant person just does not know. A stupid person, when informed, chooses to remain ignorant.

Having said that, parking my SRW can be a real PITA in a crowded lot (and the lot designs are even worse now), I can't imagine how hard a DRW is to park (and that truck IS a beauty).

A lot of the time my dually won't fit between the lines in some parking lots. So I park out ......& A most of the time its longer than most spaces .... I'm either 1/2 way out in the aisle or in the space in front........ I hate it when I have to push cars out of the way to get out (Just kidding) I have been known to be in part of 4 spaces but its way out because I don't fit............

I don't condone parking in 2 spaces but I don't think it arrogant.... Its sad that other don't respect your property.... If you see my sons car an 2007 small car it looks like a hail storm hit it sideways I bet it has over 100 door digs on each side let alone the scrapes from people parking by feel.............. forgot I missed the sign that says hit me its ok.................

Don't judge unless you have tried to park a duelly .......................

[rattleNsmoke]

Everyone's so quick to lambast that guy with his dually....until he drives over the hood of your Prius

A good example of someone who is ignorant, arrogant, and stupid in my opinion is someone who judges someone else by the car/truck they drive
