An old trick. My town has cruise nights for vintage cars in the summer. It’s amazing how big some of those old cars are, and how much space they have. I drive a Mercury Grand Marquis, which is big and spacious, but not as much as a lot of the old cars.

You mention Civics and football players. One time we were hanging out in the high school parking lot during lunch and there was an early ‘70’s Civic parked there. The first time I had seen one. We were talking about how small it was and one of the football players, who was huge, bet he could lift it. He backed up to the rear bumper and lifted it a good foot off the ground. You could have gotten only two football players of his size into a Civic.

Groan.. don't remind me. There were a few times when I went somewhere, and some jerks (upperclassmen) had lifted the rear, and turned it 90°.. so I was trapped between parked cars...
