4G TL Owners in Urban/Suburban Areas

Hey all,

I wanted to know how owners living in urban/suburban areas deal with the size of their cars. Since these cars are wider and longer than their competition, are you having trouble finding parking? Getting in and out of tight narrow lanes and around traffic? Or do you find it perfectly manageable especially after you get acclimated to its large size?

Thanks

Its a big ass car and its a little tight in my garage but its not like its a schoolbus, lol.
Most vehicles on the road are SUV's anyway and its not bigger than those so parking shouldn't be an issue.

You'll notice the car is bigger but you get used to it. I park in an underground parking lot at work with very tight spaces. I've seen someone actually tear outside shell of the car door off their car (it was a horrible thing to hear and witness) it's that tight in there but I've always managed without too much trouble and I don't even have a backup camera.

There are a few lots I frequent that have choice spots reserved for green or hybrid cars.

I take immense joy in parking in them.

Likewise for "Compact Cars Only", unless they are indeed too small and I'm risking damage.
