When I got home I called Wendy's to see if I could finagle a replacement lunch for my stupidity. They asked me to tell them what happened in detail. I got oil on my shirt, crushed my broccoli baked potato, tore my pants, and was embarassed. They said they'd get back to me. I got an envelope a week later and thought it was a coupon for a free lunch. It was a check for $864 as settlement for my damages!

So don't diss those parking blocks. They may as well be gold bars!

Good luck!

I avoid it at all costs. My car is not a daily driver, so that helps. If I have to, I stop conservatively and get out and check. It also helps that the 370 is short compared to most sedans etc that would normally park in any parking spot.

They are Work Gnosis GS2's. See my thread in the classified section, as they are now up for sale.
