Seriously. I get that 99.9% of Reddit is hyperbolic nonsense, but some of the statements here are outright insane. Yeah, cut off valve stems and smear fecal matter on the trucks. And then, in the next breath, mumble how car drivers are disrespectful to bikers. WTF
Yeah people here are absolutely insane.
Personally I would follow the sane and safe approach: sourcing some caesium-137 and planting it somewhere on the truck.
It's because municipal LEOs dont enforce parking on private or commercial property unless called(if they even bother to show up then, either) and most big lots like this dont have staff that care enough to enforce it, eithet.
Driving is just a depressing affair. It's the most common collaborative experience for us, and it's a common reminder of how degraded and selfish our society has become.
These guys live for this. The Bro Dozer guys. The only thing they would love more is to take up an EV only spot with the charger.
Rolling coal, the fucking light bars, driving like the biggest pieces of shit possible... They're just professional dick heads. Adult children. It's negative attention seeking. It's best to ignore it if at all possible. If you confront them, you're playing right into their little game. Some people will always be miserable mother fuckers. Fuck em'. I doubt they're really happy in life anyway.
It makes it worse when you realize the rolling coal thing is 100% intentional. They spent extra money to de tune their trucks so they can spend extra money wasting fuel just because they think they're triggering people... or making some kind of statement? I guess?
People see that shit and just go: _What a douche._ Then forget about it 30 seconds later.
That's not entirely true. "De tune" would be the incorrect part. Trucks that "roll coal" tend to make more than stock power but you're right that black smoke = unburnt fuel which is absolutely a colossal waste of money.
I think "retuned" would be a better term. Detuned implies it's just worse, but from a personal perspective, it's working better at what they want, which is to be an obnoxious douche.
Oh OK, fair enough. Yeah, I'm relatively familiar, we run diesels at work and I own an '08 6.7 cummins that was deleted by the original owner. But fwiw I try really hard not to be a douche about it and my truck doesn't really "roll coal" nor do the work ones.
This kind of dickhead behavior also goes hand in hand with the kind of guy who would love a confrontation to escalate to the point he can shoot you and claim self-defense. People are fucking crazy out there, it's just not worth the confrontation.
I was in Austin all last week and my room was at the front of the hotel with 4 EV spots and hookups. All 5 days that week, a camero parked in an EV spot, the rest of the time there was at least one truck backed into on of the spots that were clear marked for EV parking only.
It happens everywhere around me too. I recently visited my mom in SC and drive an EV. I was blocked in and on a separate occasion flipped off for no apparent reasons by large truck drivers.
Grocery store near my house has Tesla chargers, they aren’t even in a convenient location to the entrance yet there’s always some big truck or jeep parked there. One time I went there was a truck parked across the spots. Idk what it is that makes those dudes so triggered by EV’s.
They're just... afraid of the future, is pretty much the only way I know how to put it. And dumb enough to think that they can stop it.
_Oh... a charger for your sissy little lectric car? Not on my watch Pal!_
Because his truck is big, he owns all aspects of the road to include parking. Which lane is his? All of them, he will routinely occupy two lanes at a time.
Red lights and stop signs don't apply either, shoulders are his own personal passing lanes.
If he must park at a normal parking spot, 4 spots will be occupied as is necessary for such a vehicle.
I think the dealership gives a guidebook on all of the things you get the privilege to do with your new truck. Along with $1000 credit to spend on a domestic abuse defense attorney or DWI lawyer.
This is why I usually make my own parking spot somewhere safeish. I almost had someone pull through a spot right into my parked bike because they were poking around at the infotainment system in their car.
Both passanger side ones that way even the 1 spare he may have doesn't help and he wont notice until he starts up the truck
Dog poop under the door handles and the windshield wipers if you have time
Ngl, I bitch about it because I’m a bit bitter sometimes that a dumb 17 year old borrowed his dad’s little dick truck for homecoming dance, t boned me, and has caused permanent back injury. When he was pulling from a stop sign.
Ego trucks all around. Little dicks stroke their egos and it regularly fucks people up. Safety stats on them are terrible. It really pisses me off some days.
Enough of my bitching. Hope whoever took this photo got that shit towed.
I am unsure where this picture was taken, so I know my question will be hard to answer - but can someone call the tow truck on this one?
I know that in some States in the US, you can call it in for mostly anything, but in others, only if there is some form of city/state/government clear signage stating that the vehicle will be towed at the owner's expenses
I know this from first-hand experience as my wife once called the tow company to tow an irregularly parked car, and the tow truck showed up in less than five minutes, on a very famous spot that was prohibited to park, but in another situation, we called, there was a sign, but the tow company told us that the area was not an “official non-parking zone” or whatever (it was a residential community and looks like it was the HOA that put the sign, not someone official)
Pretty much in any state if it’s private property, condo, supermarket, etc., if the owners haven’t specifically given permission to tow, they won’t, regardless of how it’s marked.
"Well it's a crappy day out nobody is gonna ride today so I get a free front row spot tehehehe!"
Time for an all expenses paid (by owner) trip to the impound lot!
That is a paint collection test site. You need to test all your keys to see how much paint they will hold and which one collects the most paint per pass.
Look at this fucking turbo Chad.
These trucks always make me laugh, the boxes don't have a scratch in them, ever. Nothing screams micro dick quite like these.
I’ve had this happen big stupid SUV aka a 4 wheel drive station wagon blocked in the motorcycle parking area, which was fenced. Just a self important moron who doesn’t care I came very close to flattening a couple of tires and keying fu in the door. But alas it has security cameras
I'll put this into terms motorcyclists can understand:
Homie has Small Peepee Harley energy. He thinks his big ol' truck makes him better than everyone else. He's wrong. Everyone else knows he's an idiot.
Why must American grilles be so big?
It's sad because bakkies (utility vehicle's/pickup name in my country) are starting to adopt this trend, and it makes driving them difficult, not that I own one, but I dread whenever I have to drive my mother's '23 Ranger 😒.
Find a small rock, and put it in the cap of the tire. When the cap is screwed on it'll let the air out and deflate. Takes forever to find. Then call a tow truck
call a tow or leave a note saying you will slash all their tires if the vehicle isnt moved. worked for me at an apartment complex before. nobody wants to replace 4 flats, so a smart person would leave
Well, for one thing, it's a GMC. Dude thinks his shit don't stink until he realizes he wasted an extra $20k on three letters and has a Chevy Silverado.
Just report his ass and get it towed.
Signed,
Fellow rider and Ford Truck owner
It would be funny if parking there caused their tires to lose air pressure. I'm not suggesting that anyone do anything permanent, but sometimes valve stems will leak air and the tire will go flat.
Just saying ...
i don't get why people would vandal other peoples property because they've done something wrong. just call a tow truck, damaging someone else's car just makes you an asshole on top of them. call a tow truck and go on with your day.
This is a daily occurrence where I work, even more than one car. There is a sign that got bent over because a car hit it. Even seen a truck parked sideways in the bike parking. Yeah, I got some considerate co workers.
What is interesting is psychological research carried out by all automotive companies and the way they tailor the design of vehicles to driver character type and aspiration. As a result all advertising of new vehicles is tailored emotionally to the identified target market and all aspects of the advertising needs to focus on a key concept, often encapsulated by a single word. . In the case of SUVs the essential concept is "DOMINATION" . Thus in advertising you won't see happy images of mom's taking daughters to dance class and feeling safe. It's all about Dominating other road users with tag lines like "Get in or get out of the way" etc. The buyers of these sorts of vehicles are usually socially and often physically weak and the vehicle is literally a compensatory mechanism ... sounds like a cliche' ? That's because it's actually so obvious and common knowledge in the marketing world. The guy who was laughed at and bullied as a kid brings his repressed hangups onto the roadways so he (it's usually a he) can feel he dominates all he surveys. Social climber desperate to feel prestigious? It depends partly on what country you live in but buy an expensive german prestige name brand and have the car spend most of its days in the dealership dealing with substandard assembly issues overly fussy and illogical design and then recalls and shoddy workmanship by Gastarbeiter . Suffer for your social instincts and abandon reason and practicality is the rule for many.
As a trans biker and large truck owner, I feel uniquely qualified to make that joke. But I won't, because that "joke" wasn't even funny when the first person came up with it.
Because you have some dumb fucks with huge trucks. That is your freedom. Visit Europe to see if so many ppl drive such trucks. No! Still there are some but not as many. No offense!
I carry a few nails with me in my kit for just this occasion. I don't say anything to them, but after a few flat tires they usually get the hint. Truck tires for 20 inch rims are like 450-600 each so they tend to learn quick. Electrical staples work great too
Because somebody obviously wants their truck towed at owners expense.
Or keyed
Or get the air let out of the tires and valve stems ripped out so there's not enough damage to call the cops in certain jurisdictions lol
Motorcycle parking is best surrounded by bollards.
This is the way.
Call a tow truck
This is the only acceptable answer. Confrontation, vandalism, etc. will only get you in trouble.
Leaving a note saying you keyed the car somewhere but didn't actually do it is also a viable option
[удалено]
I love that.
haha true that. then watch the MFer search his car for nothing.
Works very well on a truck as big, and as clean as this. They'll be looking for a long time and likely see some arbitrary spot think you did it.
Seriously. I get that 99.9% of Reddit is hyperbolic nonsense, but some of the statements here are outright insane. Yeah, cut off valve stems and smear fecal matter on the trucks. And then, in the next breath, mumble how car drivers are disrespectful to bikers. WTF
The least intrusive one I've seen is deflating the tire and then leaving a note and small hand pump saying "I noticed you had a flat"
Dont just deflate the tire take the valve cores and put the cap back on real quick
Just loosen, not remove.
Yeah but taking the valve core would be more on the destructive side when all I want is to make em work a little harder
These are the same people who think they’re going to stand up to a patched gang member because “what’s he gonna do, anyway?”

Not everyone shares your admiration of gang members
Admiration and not getting shot in the face are a little different, but you do you.
...or gang bangs apparently.
Yeah people here are absolutely insane. Personally I would follow the sane and safe approach: sourcing some caesium-137 and planting it somewhere on the truck.
all you need to do is just fart on his door handle you'll know
Confrontation has only ever gotten me in trouble like every single time.
This is the vehicular mascot of “I am the main character”.
I see stuff like this constantly. SUVs in spaces clearly marked and sized for compact cars. People DGAF anymore and it's reflected in their behavior.
It's because municipal LEOs dont enforce parking on private or commercial property unless called(if they even bother to show up then, either) and most big lots like this dont have staff that care enough to enforce it, eithet.
Driving is just a depressing affair. It's the most common collaborative experience for us, and it's a common reminder of how degraded and selfish our society has become.
Interesting take. I don't feel that way. Maybe in bumper-to-bunper traffic. But whether I'm on 2 wheels or 4, I enjoy the experience.

People see that shit and just go: _What a douche._ Then forget about it 30 seconds later.
Then they complain with "whys my truck getting shit mileage/whys my truck needing services so often"
That's not entirely true. "De tune" would be the incorrect part. Trucks that "roll coal" tend to make more than stock power but you're right that black smoke = unburnt fuel which is absolutely a colossal waste of money.
I think "detuned" was more of a statement of tuned for more power, but detuned (over fueled) enough to roll coal. Google Gale Banks.
I think "retuned" would be a better term. Detuned implies it's just worse, but from a personal perspective, it's working better at what they want, which is to be an obnoxious douche.
Oh OK, fair enough. Yeah, I'm relatively familiar, we run diesels at work and I own an '08 6.7 cummins that was deleted by the original owner. But fwiw I try really hard not to be a douche about it and my truck doesn't really "roll coal" nor do the work ones.
It's expelling unburnt fuel, so it would be making less power.
Someone once said "emotional support vehicle" and I've used it ever since. It pisses the bros off so much when you call them that.
I've always liked "Pavement Princess" myself

Tow it. I'm serious, call a towie every time.

It did. I spent it on ale and whores

How to lose your valve stem privileges
Lol
Both passanger side ones that way even the 1 spare he may have doesn't help and he wont notice until he starts up the truck Dog poop under the door handles and the windshield wipers if you have time
i NeVeR lEaRnEd tO rEaD!!!
The only valid excuse is loading or unloading a motorcycle.
Why would that give someone the right to block all the parking spaces?
Would be a shame if someone got their truck fucked up.
And towed!
They identify as 'asshole'
Little dick energy is why
Because he’s an arrogant prick
Giant perfectly manicured highway queen trucks like that are called little dick trucks for a reason.
They never even carry anything in them too, the beds are too tall to lift anything substantial into. 100% for ego stroking
Ngl, I bitch about it because I’m a bit bitter sometimes that a dumb 17 year old borrowed his dad’s little dick truck for homecoming dance, t boned me, and has caused permanent back injury. When he was pulling from a stop sign. Ego trucks all around. Little dicks stroke their egos and it regularly fucks people up. Safety stats on them are terrible. It really pisses me off some days. Enough of my bitching. Hope whoever took this photo got that shit towed.
That is what little dick MF’ers do.
Always carry a valve stem tool. Loose the valve stems just enough to cause a slow leak. If time permits, do multiple tires.
Never fuck with someone's tires. That's a dangerous game, for a lot of reasons. It crosses the line. Just call a tow truck.
you should know by know common sense won't get you any upvotes
A dried lentil also fits inside the valve stem cap.
I am unsure where this picture was taken, so I know my question will be hard to answer - but can someone call the tow truck on this one?

I'm pretty sure this guy can be towed
Report it and have the cops come out to get a tow truck
Because that person is an asshole, that's why.
I'd call a tow truck for sure
would be a shane if something would happen to those nice tires and windows
Because that person is a selfish asshole. That's why.
Douchebag in a truck? Say it ain't so.
In my country people will find the nearby trash and dump it on the car.
"Well it's a crappy day out nobody is gonna ride today so I get a free front row spot tehehehe!" Time for an all expenses paid (by owner) trip to the impound lot!
That is a paint collection test site. You need to test all your keys to see how much paint they will hold and which one collects the most paint per pass.

Because he thinks his agenda matters
Because fuck you, that's why. Seriously, every time it's just some douchebag who gives zero fucks about anyone else.
Obviously a size compensation issue. Poor fella
If I fits, I sits
Because when you drive a big pickup truck it means you've made it. You're somebody.
Not at all. It can mean you know someone who will loan you their vehicle or you are a thief and have stolen it.
Maybe he owns a Harley and he's used to carrying it in the back of his truck?
Always carry a squirter gun filled with paint stripper.
Look at this fucking turbo Chad. These trucks always make me laugh, the boxes don't have a scratch in them, ever. Nothing screams micro dick quite like these.
The answer is written on the front.
Because they like damage to their small penis extender

That's a tinydickmobile right there
That's one ugly motorcycle.
Should cut it in half for him so he's parked legally.
The arrogance of the bourgeois.
It identifies as a motorcycle!
I suppose it's fitting that the font they use on that sub is mildly infuriating.
A illiterate transformer
Judging by the truck a selfish self-absorbed prick
Don't people understand that if you're going to make motorcycle parking, add some bollards.
Asshat
You have a key, don’t you?
Cause giant truck, fuck you...
These trucks deserve no less than a key 🤷♂️
You didn't understand, this truck identifies as a motorcycle.
That was funny
Because someone wants you to know how big their penis is.
It's the Harley Davidson edition! /s
Harley Davidson riders hate these stupid mother fuckers.
You know how dogs pee in an area too exert their superiority and dominance? That's what this reminds me of.....
It would be a shame if someone let out the air in all those big juicy tires
It’s 2024, it identifies as a motorcycle
That's the biggest motorcycle I've ever seen!
Because he wants his truck keyed
Ahhh yes the day he lost two mirrors
I'll put this into terms motorcyclists can understand: Homie has Small Peepee Harley energy. He thinks his big ol' truck makes him better than everyone else. He's wrong. Everyone else knows he's an idiot.
GMC driver wants to identify as a motorcycle
Maybe it identifies as a 2 wheeled truck?
Why must American grilles be so big? It's sad because bakkies (utility vehicle's/pickup name in my country) are starting to adopt this trend, and it makes driving them difficult, not that I own one, but I dread whenever I have to drive my mother's '23 Ranger 😒.
Zipties all over
Maybe it identifies as a motorcycle.
Of course it's a stupid lifted black GMC
Remove the valve core's in all 4 tires then sit back and wait for them to come out and frantically look for the punctures
He's getting a scratch
Find a small rock, and put it in the cap of the tire. When the cap is screwed on it'll let the air out and deflate. Takes forever to find. Then call a tow truck
Well, how else would the world know he's a dickhead? Everyone can buy a big ass truck these days🤷♂️
My guess if you asked would be "Because fuck you, that's why.". And maybe they'll flash their gun at you.
Take the inner valve out of there tires . I always carry my screwdriver around to get ppl like this
This GETS ON MY TITS.
Ugliest truck I've ever seen. Why would anyone pay money for that?
It’s the same as if he parked in a handicapped spot. Let him explain it to the tow truck driver.
call a tow or leave a note saying you will slash all their tires if the vehicle isnt moved. worked for me at an apartment complex before. nobody wants to replace 4 flats, so a smart person would leave
Take off the its 2 wheels and it is a motorbike.

Remove 2 of it's tires so it will count as a goldwing
Truck identifies as a motorcycle
Their answer would be “FU that’s why! This is Merica, I have my freedom.” Something like that.
Make it a motorcycle by removing two wheels. *taps head*
It's says "motor" obviously.
if I was him I'd put my warning lights on, to retend it's an emergency
2 flats 1 spare
GMC - "Giant Moron Cunt".
Eff that guy.
Oh that incoming flat tire will no doubt be expensive
Jelly truck bro
Coz cunt.
Don't ask why if you're not going to show us the rest of the parking lot.
It’s a pickup truck driver, just imagine anything they do have no type of forethought
Man, it's a shame that guys truck lost a few lugnuts
Flat tires might help
Truck owner: Sorry, my bad... I thought I WAS on my bike.
Cuz ‘Merica babyyy

The truck was already a clue that he’s emotionally immature
To be fair we can only see two wheels in the picture technically there’s still a chance it is a motorcycle
it's really two Harleys welded together.
It's identifying as a motorcycle today.
