I hate when I see this...

Did you notice any difference with the K&N filters?

No, I didn't expect any either. I bought them for the tiny bit of extra flow on the hottest days [longevity/washability being the secondary benefit]. So far I haven't noticed any lag and we've had several consecutive days of intense heat this summer already. I'd have to switch back to the stock filters to know if the K&Ns are making any difference though. I've used K&N in the past, and with a tune you can eek out a bit more performance versus stock filters. So I know there's performance there, just not sure if Kia's engine tune will take advantage of the additional flow on its own or that the percent or two bump would even be noticeable.

The non-jerk way of accomplishing what that M owner is trying to do is parking at the back of the lot away from the cars. It takes a few more steps but it's the correct way to handle wanting space around your car.

I'll walk the extra distance. God knows America could use the exercise.

I don't know if this is common: but the grocery store I frequent has two parking stalls in the "west forty", with big block lettering in them: "Park here and walk for exercise."

I too do not like to see people who somehow made it that far in life and cant just share a parking lot with other adults lol

But just random - i have had a shopping cart left dangeroualy close to my stinger the last 4 times i went to a chain store. Its irritating but that wouldnt make me move the back of the lot and take 4 spots ^_^

I can't say I agree with the way they park, BUT I kind of understand there are alot of inconsiderate a**holes that think it is stupid to take care of a car. With that being said I park as far as possible and slightly angled in a single space.
