ive been backing my car into my parking spot for over 2 years now, no one has followed my lead.
ill back in anywhere any any time, except when going food shopping, you need to get to the trunk. why bury it when its right there.
as crazy as it sounds, but this whole backing in deal started by driving pick up trucks, its just easier to back in, then drive away. trucks dont all turn well in tight quarters.
i never my car in. i usually pull through at stores so it looks like i backed in but at the house it's pointless since in just back into my yard to turn around
My mom always said that it "was a man's thing" to park backwards.
Or maybe my mom & sister just suck at parking........ yep thats it.
the funny thing is most guys will follow women lolQuote:

I totally saw or read some study which results were that women brains are wired to be confused by driving backwards, so they take more practice than men. Wish I remembered what it was so I could read it again.
I go to my friends' apartment every Sunday night. I'm the only person out of like 300 that backs into their spot. The property manager sent out a letter to every apartment asking everyone to please not back into spots because fumes come out of the exhaust into the windows. It can't possibly be about me, though, since my car runs right. Amusing all the same.
Agree with Mad Monkey...our parking lot at work is HORRIBLY small, so backing in is a nightmare...as it is, there are times (depending on what parks around me) where backing out requires a 5 point turn...stupid big ass Ram trucks...
I remember when I had to back into spots. The reverse idler didn't get set right on one of my cobbled together transmissions in my Stealth, so therefor I had no reverse.
I had to plan things carefully everytime I went somewhere so that I could either pull through, or drift backwards into a spot so I could get out. I got some of the strangest looks. LOL
Saw this beauty on my last delivery. Guy bought it new in 02 very well maintained, almost flawless aside from some minor scratches on the hood from his kids.... might talk to him about buying it.

I HATE YOU lol and not really any living person. i just hate the waiting on hold lol.
dood. lol THANKS for the thought. i actually went to the one in the town right close to us and they only had like 3 or 4 stylists whereas we ran 9. and the receptionist job is only needed if the business is big enough. so there was no position. and i figured okay why go into grand rapids and drive 30-45 minutes to work part time at that wage... id be ate up in gas and not make enough to pay bills. only way i'd do it is if i found a full time. which theres only ONE full time position and 9 times out of 10 they aint givin that job up. so yeah... basically it's impossible to do that work and survive. though i'd love it 1000x over.Quote:
