    These guys act like they are driving a classic Ferrari. Caring about minor dings and scrapes on a mass produced 4x4 is insane.

    It’s for city people that like to bump into stuff while parking. I’ve never understood how that hideous cover is more attractive than a few paint chips on the bumper.

    If I bumped your car, you'd never know.

    But, I do agree that trail damage is different. I have a ton of pinstripes. They don't bug me. But, door dings piss me off. Some people have no respect for other people's vehicles.

    For some people, these are show cars. I take mine to shows occasionally, but I wear my trail scars with pride. My car guy buddies don't get it.

    You're in law enforcement, I'm in health care. If people had common sense and situational awareness, we'd both be out of work.

    Youre right, I wouldnt because you’d hit my steel front bumper or my rear hitch hook. Thus the reason I have them.

    Bumping into someones car regardless if it causes damge or not is also disrespectful. I dont touch your car, so dont touch mine. Its a universal rule.

    Lol. Getting upset about a bumper to bumper tap is like being upset about someone touching a doorknob. Don't park anywhere public if this upsets you.

    The funny thing is that I totally exaggerated in my initial post. I've probably made contact with a total of 10 vehicles in my lifetime while parking. But, you got so upset about it that I just couldn't leave it alone.

    Not true. People have health issues regardless of how they take care of themselves.

    You're supposed to just flip it out when you park but people are lazy.

    Yeah but when someone does just barely tap it, that totally vindicates you for being a fuckstick who leaves the Shinbasher 9000 in your hitch all the time. So much so it deserves a thread displaying your vindication for everyone to see.

    Cool! I could use up four different posts, showing pics of all our vehicles with "prominent" hitches... and the hitch on the riding mower, too!

    Maybe title the thread, "Show your hitches, b*tches!"

    Ok, fine. We'd have a lot less work. Better?
