I know that city ordinances can sometimes defy logic, but this reaches a new low.

That's like deciding out of the blue to just start discriminating against people with orange hair.
With the blessings of the government and law enforcement I might add.

With the wheels off and up on concrete blocks.

Sure are...and I really know it when I'm in a small parking lot. Necessary for the farm, though.

And they all have an affinity for small cars. Much more often than not, when I pull into a parking lot with plenty of space and park well away from other vehicles, I'll come out to find two of those behemoths in the two spaces right next to me even tho' there's lots and lots of other spaces.

Any of you out there who drive monsters do this? If you do, why?

Not me...it's much easier to park it with a couple of open spots on either side. In fact, I'll usually take up a couple of spaces so those extremely inconsiderate tiny little cars don't box me in. I don't like parking lot dings, and assume that the extremely inconsiderate tiny little cars' drivers don't either.

That makes perfect sense and is what I'd normally expect. Ah, well, what one has to put up with when one is so magnetic? ;):cool2:
