Any automatic Z owners walk out their car in Drive or Reverse?

My Wife looks at me and just recites "Really" a few times. I do it to her car all the time. I don't put my Z in gear when I

My Wife looks at me and just recites "Really" a few times. I do it to her car all the time. I don't put my Z in gear when I park unless its an incline/decline. I do to her car, rentals, idk. Head space and timing error. I hate forgetting to pull my ebrake when I park and she starts rolling. It never starts rolling when I'm still in it of course, after I take a step out. When someone else moves my car, they throw it in first, so when I start it, I release the clutch and the f'n car jumps. Pisses me off, luckily I always start with my foot on the brake.

Ok let me spell it out for you, I am very used to just turning off the keys (push start) bc of manual cars and motorcycles! Did you fail grammar and comprehension school?

And for the post that had the accident flying into someone's house.... I seriously doubt my car will do that in any gear with the engine off. And you sir is a retard too for the ludicris comparison

Man... Can't believe this silly thread of making fun of my own habits turned into a complete douchebaggery from some 'perfect Mona Lisa' forum members. Don't worry, we won't judge your insecurities. Let it all out on the Internet big guy!

I have some pretty bad gas atm. We went to a brunch buffet this morning and I must have created a time bomb by mixing coffee, tenderloin, and about a thousand pastries.

Carry on

Still no blaming visible to me, just that he mentioning of having a push button. Anyway, your childish name calling just shows you are too immature to actually drive any vehicle. I assume you are one of those guys tailgating and pulling guns on people who do your wrong in traffic. You should be ashamed or at least embarrassed to call people retarded. Have seen those forums over and over, always the one or other, insecure and living in moms basement, brave to make comments they would never do face to face. Ahhh, the animosity of the internet, what a curse. Enjoy the rest of your pathetic live kiddo

Let me try to beak this down because there's clearly miscommunication here...

^I wasn't calling you a troll, I was responding to the guy below. I highlighted YOUR text to show him what he clearly misread. Perhaps YOU missed the "grammar and comprehension school" (I'm rather certain you mean class).

Also, regarding your habits. It may never come down to destroying someone else's house. It's a drastic scenario. But what did you really think was going to happen? A bunch of people are going to tell you it's perfectly normal and it's fine to continue doing it? No, you're putting yourself in a bad situation by not correcting your driving habits and we're making sure you know it's not ok. Just because you think something won't happen doesn't make it not happen. By continuing to "accidently" leave the car in gear on a weekly basis you're allowing the possibility that the car is going to get away from you. It just needs to happen once.

^Now, OP has stated several times that he's not used to the push start/stop and that is what is causing him to leave the car in gear. Yes, you are an idiot for missing it twice now.

I would also call you a retard to your face if we met on the street because everything you're saying is retarded. I don't know how you extrapolated the whole "in mom's basement" stereotype from but I can only assume you're speaking from experience. Clearly you're the kid in mom's basement trolling forums because you're the only one here making ridiculous comments without ever really knowing what you're talking about. Personally I'm only subscribed to this forum and I've met many of the Z drivers in the area, if they made a comment as stupid as you I would be the first to let them know. Today, it's just you.
