I parked my civic at one last night, I was told I was going to be given a ticket...

"How can you give me a ticket? My civic gets 40mpg"
"Its only for hybrid vehicles"
"Okay, well I get just as good as a hybrid"
"Sir, just leave"

Ironically it was when I was leaving, I did get to make a point to the manager though.

Dammit!

Who the hell is going to give you a ticket? It's not a law like handicapped parking is. A policeman wouldn't be able to write a ticket. The store could have your vehicle towed but I don't see that happening either.

Hybrid vehicles, I can park my smokey 2 stroke moped there. It's a hybrid, motor and pedals!

my f250 is a hybrid. It turns gas into electric energy to run my radio

That is just stupid.The signs had better be all the way across the parking lot.We gas hogs need to be close so we dont drive around looking for a close spot!!!

That sign is total BS but people who park in handicapped spots 'coz they're too lazy to walk need 10,000 cart dings in their car.

I parked my lifted 96 ram with my sx in the back in one of those "expectant mother" spots at a local grocery store......... That sign is bs, someone should steal it

Lol, You should write a formal complaint to the store. Tell them that You cannot park your 41 mpg civic in a spot that gets better gas mileage that any damn hybrid truck.... LOL I just saw an ad that Hybrid Tahoe/Suburban only gets 16 mpg

yeah and a hybrid 1500 costs like 20k more than a normal 1500...20k in fuel isnt worth it...itd take like 100k miles on the truck to break even

Chank that sign to "TRIKE PARKING ONLY" and put it back, LOL

That sign should read "reserved for smug vehicle owners only". I hate Prius owners, they're the same people that only shop at Whole Foods, and their condo is completely furnished by IKEA.

My parents want's to get a bumper sticker for their Cadillac ('99 Deville) that says "I Have A Smart Car, I Keep It In The Trunk". With a bumper sticker like that, the best buy sign would be perfect for inside the trunk.

am I the only one who got pissed off because I saw some guy in a lexus parked in one? not because he was a hybrid driver, but because his vehicle gets trailprotrailprotrailprotrailpro mileage.

bleh...doesn't matter, park at the end of the parking lot anyways, makes more sense if you have to make a fast getaway and don't wanna be blocked in.

And yes, I do keep my eyes open for gunfights and terrorist attacks in malls.... something goes down, this ol boy is GTFO!

so his lexus gets trail pro mileage??? so... 400000k miles per gallon? lol
