No, usually it's a SUV driver that cannot park within two lines!

Any of the cars I've owned, when I come out to the parking lot, there's a good chance that some moron parked next to me, out in the boonies. My guess is that they're insecure about someone caring about their car so they try and annoy you by parking next to you.

They are attracted to the Fit. Be cautious, one of them might hump you poor Fit one day.

Where I park I have trouble seeing the school over the curve of the earth. I literally park a 1/4 mile from the nearest door on campus just to keep away from everyone, after getting a door ding less than a week after taking delivery!!

lol I'm sure that's just a hill. It takes closer to 10 miles before objects start to get lost over the horizon.

Maybe they feel sad for your Fit because you parked all alone and they park their car with yours so they can talk to each other. :/

Either that or, the Fit, which looks sort of like a "baby" mini-van, appeals to the maternal instinct in all mini-vans. When they see a Fit, they just can't help all gathering around it to say things like, "oh what a cute little van".

That's it! The big headlights, the rounded shape...You got it! IMO the Odyssee and the Fit look very much alike from a distance...

Maybe it's the fact that the Fit leaves some extra room next to it in the parking spot and fat assed vans see that as extra ease in getting the passengers/cargo in and out?

well homo sapiens were pack animals. Perhaps some sort of unconcious instict to stick together. If it's at night, I wouldn't mind because I'm less likely to get robbed if there are more cars around. If it's a molester van call the police lol.
