    As a truck owner (i have a farm) i am paranoid a hell about being evenly between the lines. If you can’t afford to take care of your pavement princess when it gets dings then maybe you should get something buy something in your budget.

      Also, if someone has a pickup truck and it’s not at least a little dinged up, I’m judging them. Those are working vehicles, not eye candy.

        This is the big one for me too. I’m Albertan; we have a lot of lifted crew-cab short box pickups with absolutely immaculate paint jobs.

        If you want to waste money and fuel on a vehicle you don’t need, at least have the class to buy an old hotrod

      The really stupid part is that truck guy could have parked all the way over the other way and it would have had plenty of space.

        But TruckBoy’s whole idea was to manspread in to the 2nd spot so nobody could park there.

        Leaving enough space for someone else to park would have been too soyboy/considerate and folks might have doubted his ability to be a selfish lover.
