they should've put those signs at the very end of the parking lot...
when you go next time... write "Hybrid" on piece of cardboard and put it up on your dash.

 

:hmmm:

That's a bit much. Oy.

 

I'd park a big truck there pushing the sign half way over.....




(trying.....not......to.....make......a......Canada......comment........oh, the pain!)

 

Should have left the car idling while I was inside.

 

The sweeds do it again! :banghead: :thumbdown

 

This kind of quasi-futuristic bullshit can only happen when you´re shopping at Ikea

 

At the Costco near my house there is still electric vehicle only signs up with plugs and all when those were the rage. I park there. I dont see how they can ticket you for that.

 

One would think that in this economy, retailers who are struggling to just keep the doors open wouldn't do these head-up-their-ass things. I would agree that you need a "Hybrid" hang card you can hang from your mirror.

 

Your car is a hybrid...it's not a VW, but not quite an Audi.

 

Hahaha.. my car is a hybrid... B5 on the outside and B5.5/CC on the inside. :lol:

 

That would be a mutt sir!

 

Almost makes me want to not shop there...

Efe Hybrids

 

I'm in mechanical engineering at the University of Ontario in Oshawa, Ontario, and I just wrote a technical essay bashing hybrids in the Canadian auto market. Couldn't help it to throw in TDI comparisons every now and then

 

Oh yea check this out http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5rQM_HAcfA .

 

Good thing it didn't say "Clean Cars Only"

 

Should park a Hummer there...

 

...and leave that idling.

 

Next target.. "Parking for Expectant Mothers"

 

We have that crap at my work... what about expecting fathers? Sexist?

 

and once they do that it's on to the "Parking for Minorities"

 

H2SO4, ftw! (not)

Sulphuric acid, huh?

 

What they should really have is a parking for someone who really needs to take a pee quickly spot. Perhaps they could have an outdoor toilet next to the spot? As for the hybrid sign that's an easy solution.
Step 1: Steel the badges off of the prius next to you and gorilla glue it onto your trunk. (badgeless passats are way played out anyways)
Step 2: steal the hybrids only sign and sell it on ebay.

Not only have you recouped the cost of having to take time to deal with this bs, you have also become somewhat of a hero for SUV drivers everywhere. Think of yourself as the US version of the Angle Grinder Man.

 

haha, i just tend to ignore these signs. then again, it guarantees me free parking every time i go to best buy EVEN AT X-MASS TIME!

although, the signs they have are "efficient vehicle parking only" and are 1) not legally applicable. 2) requires a fine line to be drawn ans specified as to what is efficient and not and most importantly 3) who says my v6 isn't efficient when it's getting 24 mpg :lol:



angle grinder man is my hero.

 

he's gonna get his ass beat by a bunch of hemp wearing hacky sak players!

 

after they smoke a blunt and yell about the smog and hug a tree, and by the time they realize it's happening, you've already made your purchase in IKEA and left...

 

That is absolutly ridiculous...I would stop shopping there if it were in my town.:thumbdown

 

i would have thrown away the sign.

 

Nice to see someone else with a dirty blue Passat.

That look is familiar.

 

LOL... Winter in Canada = copious amounts of road salt used, so no point in washing cuz you'll be filthy by the time you drive home from the wash. Since October it's been washed once. :lol:
