Thanks! Pretty much stock, and likely only doing a few cosmetic things in the future. But can't complain!

The spot is SO random...all the normal spots were taken, and saw this and didn't even know if it was a parking spot. I parked and then asked an employee who was helping with drive-through orders and they confirmed it is, in fact, a parking spot.

NICE! LOL

I feel like only in America people think of cars as disposable. They toss empty bottles, partially eaten food, kids spilled chocolate milk and cheerios all over their car. And the could care less if they smash their door on another car.

So yes - an attitude problem for sure.


On a lighter note - I hit 1,000 miles and no dings on my doors. Knock on carbon.
I couldn't agree more. As a fellow international citizen, I can confirm that this is truly a concern for Americans... Kind of a shame, to be honest. In EU and APAC countries, parking next to a 20-year-old dirty car still wouldn't be much of a concern, but here in the States, I can almost guarantee that the owners of a 20-year-old dirty car would open the door carelessly and give you a big ding.

But this is perfectly parked. You even have the wheels turned towards the curb as required by regulations.

I assume you live at the lighthouse and keep watch on the M2 all night.
