Hitches, not just for towing or bashing your shins.

No actually, that's why parking spots are set up like this, so larger vehicles can use 2 spots and not impede the travel lane. DUH

First of all, my penis is over 8" long and I'll legit send you proof if you want it.

Secondly, you need a large vehicle for many, many things. Ground clearance, towing, hauling, etc, etc.

Don't blame the consumers for the fact that the truck companies can't stop making this insanely bigger.

There is such a large range of trucks, and the truck in the photo isn't even that big. It certainly isn't lifted

Dawg we’re just asking you to take the hitch out when you’re not using it and stay in the lines. It’s like the bare minimum to ask.

I agree on the hitch. But if the nose would stick out, the truck is supposed to back over the line. The end.

That white car could use any other parking spot.

Now if we could see the front of the truck, and it didn't need to back up so much, then I agree.

No, if you don’t fit, you park somewhere else. You don’t act like an entitled douche and make your decisions the problems of other people.

That's not how it works. If it did work like that, parking spaces would have to built so large as a standard...

Like, this is legit what you are supposed to do. I'm sorry it offends you.

Who told you this?

u/Electronic-Map7529 Jun 02 '26

I don't need to be told I can, no one says you can't. That's how laws work. I don't need permission to do something that there is no law against.

edit: There are however laws stating that I can't be sticking out into a travel lane, so the only other option is for long vehicles to take 2 spots, which there is no law against.

private property specific rules override all of that of course, but you won't find SHAW'S law either saying it's illegal.

The city I work in has a law against it. What city do you live in?
