Costco... because thats where the last dent came from... good thing for Paintless dent repair!

Mind you, I got a dent in the right rear door of the beemer at Home Depot and some idiot key'd the beemer this
fall while in the parking lot of a nice restaurant...(that sad story cost me 700 bux) but it doesnt seem to matter
where you go, there's always an idiot waiting to make your day!

Turns out... nowhere!

I recently the first new dent in 4 years in the door. Of course it bothers me. However I enjoy driving it far more than parking it. The hood is mostly comprised of stone chips at this point. And recently with city driving I have parallel parked between cars with 6" to spare (too dark to take a photo).

Of course I also spend a solid weekend every 6 mo. or so to pamper and upkeep the appearance. I try to chase after everything that is degrading and keep the mechanical parts as solid as possible.

"I'm not afraid to drive it because I'm not afraid to fix it!"

I avoid parking mine in SF on rainy nights. No telling what might happen... ;-)
