HUGE trucks/SUVs in the BART parking garage

I find it unbelievable that people are still buying HUGE trucks and SUVs. And probably bitching continually about high gas prices... I see these vehicles with paper 'new car' plates and it fries me. I once heard that 'alpha male' owners of these behemoths buy them to compensate for their own tiny peepees.
Today I had to dodge a Ford F350 mega-truck on the 3rd floor of the Fruitvale BART parking garage, space 516. Texas plates (Doh! Moron!) The thing was literally jutting out 3 feet beyond the length of the space. Why don't BART police ticket such nuisances? I suppose they are (and we should be) grateful that the owner at least takes BART for a portion of his daily commute.

which is more amazing: the

which is more amazing:
the driver of such vehicle, or a motorcyclist who parks there?

riding a motorcycle in AM (and PM) rush means no tolls, less in fuel than the value of the BART ride, and perhaps free parking, if it can be found.

I'm going to take your Texas reference " Texas plates (Doh! Moron!)" as an implication that you are very proud that Cindy Sheehan now lives there. Better Texas than Berkely, better Berkely than Vacaville.

Yes, I'm proud that Cindy

Yes, I'm proud that Cindy was willing to relocate in order to raise the average Texas IQ level a few critical points. By the way, the city name is spelled 'Berkeley'.

This sure is stupid. I'm

This sure is stupid. I'm sure you are just a troll, but I'll bite. I'm sure you'd love everyone to drive a Prius or a recumbent bike, but not everyone has that choice. There are plenty of folks that work construction jobs that ride BART, and this outhanging texan may just be one of them. I'm sure that we can put up with a few bigger gas guzzling vehicles if everyone can put up with your patchouli smelling hippie funk.

at least that person is

at least that person is riding BART and trying to spare the air. i agree, most people who drive trucks work in construction or some trade that requires them to have a truck. nevertheless, the thieves tend not to screw with the trucks as much as BART as the smaller cars so after having my car vandalized and broken into several times plus being ran off the road by SUVs going to and from BART, i decided to buy my own dam truck and join them. however, i'm careful and mindful in the way i park.

You missed the whole point

You missed the whole point (and every one of your generalizations was dead wrong...as well as laughable). The truck blocks half the traffic lane because it can't begin to fit into a normal-sized parking space. It should be towed away. There are plenty of vehicles that would fit. Even some SUVs...

no, we completely caught

no, we completely caught your point. you wanted the truck towed, and also wanted to spew shit about the size of mens' dicks.

in your world you're the ruler; in the real world we all try to get along on a daily basis. please open your heart/mind/spirit, and get off of the I'm-right-and-everyone-else-is-wrong mentality.

'nuff said

Well, the teenie weenies

Well, the teenie weenies really do show up to defend their SUVs, don't they? Most of the people that I know of who own SUVs do not work in construction. They don't drive offroad, and they are not outdoors folks. They bought one because everyone has one. It's the American way. SUVs are the new station wagon except lots of folks who own them are childless and don't haul anything except their own self absorbed backside.

SUVs confirm American's status as greedy, selfish, pigs who think the world's resources are there for their exclusive use and that we should use any means necessary to insure there will always be enough gas to fuel guzzling SUVs, luxury cars, and Hummers. Oink, oink.

Oh, and Patchuli stink? At least we're talking about someone who's IQ is bigger than the miles per gallon their SUV sucks down.

fuck you i make my own

i make my own biodiesel, in fact

move out of this country IMMEDIATELY if we offend you so

Try harder. You could

Try harder. You could become REALLY stupid.
