and when friends ask me why I park so far away from everyone in parking lots I tell them because there are nimrods who will swing their doors open on my car or back into it, etc.  I'd rather be safe than sorry.

This thought may not be politically correct, but is an opinion offered. It may be correct? or it may be wrong? It is not designed to appease those needing shelter from the real world.

  Looks like a 69 Chevelle.  I hope I am not far off, but it is hard to tell from under the car cover.
