Default Pet peeves involving your ride

Don't you hate it when you drive to the furthest away parking spot from the other cars only to find out when you come back that there's someone right next to you and you worry about door dings. That's my pet peeve. Keep the list going guys!.

I found a big **** hand print on my babe's left rear fender...LOL People can't keep their hands off of her.

I alsp hate it when people park all on top of my Z...even if I park in the last space in the furthest spot from the store, someone parks on the line between us. One day I will have a ding. For now, I take down license ##"s too.

The autodimmer light in the rearview mirror. Annoys the hell out of me. I turn the damn thing off everytime I turn on the ignition.

The steering is way to sensative on this car. I've only owned one for a week and I can feel every road groove at the steering wheel.

Where to begin: parking as mentioned previously, rain, snow, dirt, sand (from snow), people flipping down my visor, people plopping down on the bolster of the seat like its a sofa, dirty feet in the car, dents, dings, brake dust on the wheels, people that can't drive worth a $hit and almost hit me, etc., etc.

Black paint=always looks dirty except for the 2 sec after it's been washed.
Blind spots when backing out of parking spaces.
Brake dust on wheels.
Small scratches on both windows from rolling up & down.

People who drive and talk on their cellphone. They either drive slow, drive erratically, or switch lanes without looking.

I know, everyone says they can drive and talk at the same time... Beleive me, you can't!
