Do any of you do it? I'm specifically interested in those that manage it w/o assigned parking spots, which is the boat I'm in. Besides money it is the thing stopping me from getting a second vehicle, have any of you come up with a good solution to this problem? Some options I thought of:

- Just deal with having to move the "weekend" car every 3 days
- Buy a spot in one of the cheaper lots on the outskirts of town
- Wait till I move to a place that comes with a spot

I had a pass to a parking garage that I paid by the month for. Just had to flash the pass on my way in and they didn't do checks within the garage because it was also where valet parked cars for a hotel across the street.

So you are saying they weren't keeping track of how many cars you were keeping there?

I like to think she's naked under this trench coat.

I believe we all assumed as much

Basically. I also would park on the street. I mainly used it for the days the street sweeper came.

I don't do it, but if it's a weekend car only then a cheap fee in a lot somewhere might not be a bad idea (provided it's relatively secure). Also, is that Amber Heard in the picture? If not, the resemblance is uncanny.

I have, in the past 4 minutes, fallen madly in love with her.

Currently renting an additional parking spot, but I'm not happy about it. It's outdoors and a pain in the ass to swap cars.

Haha, it's easy to! She's possibly the best looking actress in Hollywood. Also, quite charming if you've seen the Top Gear interview

Can you leave it at work?

Simple, move to East Grand Rapids. Most of those houses have 2-3 bays and many are heated. :)

I think that was one of my favorite interviews on the show. She seemed to just take all of Clarkson's comments in stride haha
