i feel there is a joke about you and parking and i dont know it lol
Yeah, they claim my parking is not straight, but I think some folks need to get the plank out of their own eye before they can see the splinter in mine.:wink: Not going to mention any names (@AzScorpion):giggle:. Some people are in denial around here.:LOL:

All depends on what/how much Alcohol you've been drinking when you park your truck and what mood you're in......
JUST Kidding....Not condoning drinking and driving.........
i would say park it any way you want. I may be wrong but I think there is proper drainage at the front and rear of the bed on the Ranger

Me too! I don’t know what they’re talking about. I’m between the lines & , in my opinion, that’s all that matters. :giggle:

My driveway slopes downhill from the house too.
On the rare occasion I have to park outside the garage, I park nose down as I don't care about the water drain in the bed, but I am sure to back up really close to the garage door because I DO care about mitigating tailgate/taillight theft as best I can.
For whatever that might be worth to ya :)
I second this way of parking.
To add to it, i do park at an angle, with the wheels turned all the way. Just a weird way in my head of thinking i am taking some kind of stress off the brakes and transmission

Hi TZ,

Many of us will defer to our Queen of Parking, Tracy Bowman....

Best,
Phil
To do this correctly, TZ needs to first paint a line down the middle of drive and then straddle it...?

And to achieve optimal fuel in oil mixture...also, the TGD doesn't have to work as hard...everything counts when holding a 20lb purse...

No joke, just the gospel truth.

I may not park like Tracy, but I'll defend her right to park any way that she likes.
