LOVE IT! (And have done the exact same thing several times!)

...when the only grocery store you are comfortable going to in the Camaro is Costco because the parking spaces are actually wide enough for you to open the door wide enough to avoid hitting the inside of the doors when you try to get out.

I find that Easy Exit greatly reduces how much you have to open the door to get out.

That said, I tend to be a bit selective on which car I park beside, provided that I have to park beside someone since other people can open their door into you. I remember going to the gym once and right as I engaged the handbrake, a very rusty truck started parking beside me... And yeah, I pulled out of the spot to park at another spot. It is a bit of a rude assumption, but I doubt someone with such a rusty vehicle actually has any concern with any car.

^ Dis, I enabled mine realize how much easier it is to get out. Getting in isn't all that much different in a parking garage, so I park my car in the bowels of hell away from everything.

Only to get back to your car a few hours later to find some piece of garbage car has parked next to you....

I once pulled into a retail client's parking lot, near the back and sat for a bit as I drafted up some paperwork. A few minutes later a big SUV pulled up next to me, so I pulled out and parked further out. As I sat in the new parking space further away, I saw "large marge" crack open the passenger side SUV door and swing it wide. If I were still parked next to them, I'm convinced that she would've made contact with my door, as I saw that there was no way that she could crawl out of the vehicle with the door opened to its narrowest opening.

I get nervous when people park next to my car, I'm always looking at the sides to see if I find dings.

Its not that I have a problem not hitting their cars, its that everyone else doesn't give a crap about not hitting my car.

I've legit thought about Lambo doors not because I think they look cool, but I think it'll actually really help with getting out of my damn car.

Now if only they opened with one proper swing instead of out, then up...

I can see it now, calling Uber to take you from where you parked your car to where you are going....


That would be a pretty funny troll on an Uber driver....
