    I'll agree about taking two spots in an oversized truck, but you don't have to be the asshole that parks your oversized truck in the handicap spot. Okay it's hard to park...so why not park it somewhere other then a handicap spot???

    And for the record, those mudflaps gots to go! :jester:

    General I actually asked a guy about that lol HIS answer was he wasted so much money on the lift and didnt feel like dropping a couple grand into new wheels and tires.. He also wanted to keep his gas mileage somewhat at stock numbers without dropping more money into gears and HP..

    Bahaha, i back my truck in between cars all the time but sometimes, I grab my handicap tag and park in the HC spot. (only in front of my apts). Cause parking here sucks! But I got asked by a cop patrolling one morning.

    Cop: "Sir, is this your vehicle?"

    Me: "Yes Ma'am, is there a problem?"

    Cop: "Does that handicap tag belong to you?"

    Me: "Uh, yeah??"

    Cop: "Hmm, it's odd that a handicapped person has such a big truck."

    Me: "Ma'am, i'm not retarded. I hurt my knee a few months ago and don't want to walk far."

    Cop: "Try lowering your vehicle and you won't hurt yourself"

    BAHAHAHAHA, stupid cop..

    Those are 24" Jesse James Lawless 8 lugs. The cheapest I've ever seen them is $1100 a piece. I'm betting buddy don't take this truck off road very much, if at all.

    Those rims also come in 28"...

    So you're saying you park in the designated parking spots most of the time?

    I don't really blame ya for taking advantage of the HC spot in the apartments. Not to mention you have a handicap deal for the mirror. It's not really against the law in your case dude.

    For the record, those SD's are a bit*h to park in tight parking spots. I use to drive a 4X4 as a company vehicle so I understand the 2 spot deal. But I use to also park towards the rear of the parking lot too. Hell I park my F150 towards the rear of whatever parking lot I'm in.

    The only way someone will complain about a truck parking in the handicap spot is if they call the local P.D. The fitness club I work for is on privately owned land which is patroled by a security business and sometimes the local P.D.

    I was surprised someone didn't call the cops on him.

    fixed that! :waytogo:

    forgot that he parked in the handicapped spot, that ain't right but I understand taking up 2 spots, I drive my friends f250 and my truck and I can usually get into one spot but sometimes it just ain't worth the hassle. my bumper adds a good foot to my frontend so now it's a ***** to park

    but for the record when I take up 2 spots I do it in the back of the parking lot, I'm not one of those assholes that gets in the front of the parking lot and takes up 2 spots
    I guess it makes sense but if your gona go through all that you should go all out IMO
