I have to do that all the time... Seems like parking spaces are getting smaller around here.

Why, is it longer if you pull it in than backing it in?


Who woulda thunk?

while it's not longer....it does make a difference on how far you stick out if you back into a space against a Curb. If you run your rear tires up to the curb there is more of your truck hanging over the grass than if you pull in. Obviously this does not apply if there is another parking spot behind you when you back in. ;)

You know, I was being funny but I never thought about that because I've got that dang 14" drop hitch and it tends to limit me sometimes.

I got a ticket for doing something similar! I parked my H2 in the street in front of my house, so I parked half of my H2 on my sidewalk in front of my house. So that way people would have more room in the street to drive by without hitting my truck. Oh yeah and I paid for the sidewalk to be run in front of my house to boot. I should be able to park on the f*cking thing if I want to!
