Not that scary, just thought I would share. I was at the grocery store, GF went inside and I stayed in the car. A quick storm came up and I was looking out the window and a shopping cart was sitting there like 10ft away. The wind gusts were like 40-50mph, I saw the wheels turn on the cart and it was heading towards the rear of my car. I tried to open the door, but the wind made it really difficult to open it, finally got out just in time to stop the cart. Reminded me of that commercial a while ago.

Anyways, thought I would share, glad I was in the car, just cause you park far out doesn't mean your car is safe.

Well, this does sort of have to do with the appearance of a car, as most just park far away to avoid other cars, but you have to be aware of carts around your car too.

Geesh take it easy on me, don't you think I know the rules by now.

 

but that boards all the way over there...

anyone else have a problem with the cookies going between the different bulletin board systems?

 

I'm still having problems. I can be here 5 minutes, and need to log back in. This is starting to annoy me.

 

Usually only happens to me when I close IE.

 

So true! This weather stinks! Atleast heere it does. Geez you were in your car and almost couldnt save it!

 

this weather in MD the past couple of days has made me very paranoid of damage to my car. Tree were almost sideways right next to my car. Makes me seriously consider renting one of the garages in the complex. Its 100 a month though. I think we are going to look for some houses in the westminster area. Cheaper and I am not as worried about the area as long as I have a 2 car garage.

 

I always park far away and when its at a place with carts, I always look around for any stray carts that can possibly hit my car and then I bring em back with me. So far so good, no new door dings yet.

 

Good save Mark. I've got so many door dings on my car its not even funny. Most of them came from the room mate that parked next to my car, while it was out of commission, in the garage. He'd come home wasted, in the stupid F150, and just bash the crap out of my drivers side door, Damn Furd guys. He hated Chevys anyways. Actually, once I caught him pissing on my car, that was not cool.

Also I'm having the problems with the logging in all the time thing. Dont know if its me or what.

 

I hope you beat the ever-living crap out of him for that. Almost all my friends are Ford guys, but they respect me and my car (if they didn't, they'd have to find someone else to mod their vehicles for free), and they know there would be hell to pay if they messed with it no matter how drunk they were at the time.
