Hadn't noticed any problems with parking my MegaCab, but I do have a lot of heavy truck experience, so maybe it's sizejust doesn't seem as apparent to me.

As mentioned earlier, practice some, and you'll find that the more you do it, the easier it is.

When I taught my son to drive, I filled a lot of old milk jugs with water (so they don't blow away) andplaced them in any empty parking lot. I had him practice parking and manuvering, and when he misjudged his distance, the milk jugs would give him an audible warning without doing any damage to the truck.

Most times I pull in like a bat out of hell and sucessfully park. But, I have no fear! I kinda drive my truck like I'm in Nascar. My nickname on the road in Nass.

No problem for me at all....course the RCSB is the reason. But like was said a brazilian times, back it in! That's actually the only way I can park at my apartment. My spot is under covered parking and one of those damn standing beamsis right in the middle of my diver side door if I don't back it in.

backign in is the easiet. however if push came to shove like the holiday season, you can always strap up to another car and drag them out of the spot you need.

Men back trucks in. Driving the quad cab is nothing after driving thetower ladderat the fd. Some people can't handle driving a mini.

Coming from a 2500 Suburban, parking a QC Ram is like parking a Geo Metro! [sm=coolness.gif]


I hate door dings though, so to the back of the lot I go!!
