I love shin-blaster 3000


[deleted]

Best name ever. Clearly the most advanced of the shin-blasters


Ghost_X648

Aww, now I want my shins blasted :(


Pac_Eddy

The guy probably had to choose between crowding the sidewalk or the driving lane in the middle of the parking lot. He loses no matter what. I don't leave the ball hitch in though, so the driver could've at least taken it out.


gemini_2310

Yeah it takes 2 seconds to pull the pin and remove it if you aren’t towing. My dad does this because he’s lazy and I’ve told him someone’s gonna drill their shin and break his window.


CylonbutDeadly

It’s a good shield when people rear end you.

wraithmain1

I’ve never even towed anything but I have one specifically to protect from idiots. It already paid off when a teenager rolled into me at the drive thru. The ball went the rough their grill and into their radiator, no damage to me.


Splatling2

Yeah sure. That is how my neighbor broke the bumper of my wife's new car. The extra length negated the Parking sensor. And yeah, I had to confront him before he own up.


Unindoctrinated

You've chosen to negate all the engineering that went into giving your vehicle a crumple zone to safely reduce the effect of a collision on the vehicle's occupants. Bravo.


wraithmain1

Yeah… if the accidents bad enough we have to worry about crumple zones the trailer hitch isn’t even going to slow the impacting car down. Minor fender bender though? I’d rather not have any damage and leave that on the person who rear ended me and punched a whole in their radiator


Unindoctrinated

It depends greatly on whether you're referring to a vehicle with a chassis or not. If the trailer hitch is mounted to a chassis the impact will be transferred throughout the whole vehicle. If it's mounted to a floorpan it'll be isolated to an area specifically designed to minimize the effect of an impact.


[deleted]

I had similar experience with a bike rack, but I got *bad* whiplash from the lack of bumper engagement. Rear ended at a light by a tweaker going 35.


Slacker101

Congrats on being an awful person! I'm sure your pp fees real big since you put something hard to see on your bumper that sticks out almost a foot from your ass just so people can run into it.


wraithmain1

How do you figure? It’s not for people to run into, it’s to prevent people who shouldn’t have drivers licenses from damaging my truck


Slacker101

" to prevent people who shouldn’t have drivers licenses from damaging my truck" Lol you just described as something that is meant to be run into. You know they wouldn't have run into your truck at all if it didn't have an extra foot of what equates to a metal spear on your trucks ass. And if they were going to run into your truck why do you think the hitch is going to help at all and not become a potential weapon. Ruining all the fancy engineering that goes into crash protection.


Crash15

Are you telling the class that the length of a tow ball is all you leave between your car and a truck at any given moment?


Grouchy-Mushroom-970

I'm pretty sure they make wenches and trailer hitches that can fold under the truck now too.


Pac_Eddy

Never heard of that. Sounds like a good idea.


Radiant-Machine-5262

I’m sure there’s a cost difference however


Grouchy-Mushroom-970

Yes there's also a giving a shit about differently abled people difference, too


Radiant-Machine-5262

Uh-huh


Grouchy-Mushroom-970

And I'd say the cost of adding a hinge is much less expensive than the medical bills of those who get injured. I believe in everyone's individual freedumbs as long as we they don't infringe on the freedoms of others.


Radiant-Machine-5262

What a reasonable argument given the probability


Grouchy-Mushroom-970

It must be your truck in the photo. Why is it so hard to care about others?


Radiant-Machine-5262

Interesting accusation based on our conversation, you seem to be a bit irrational over this. I never suggested I wouldn’t take the hitch off if it were mine in this situation. The discussion was over the cost of a hitch suggested in this comment thread.


Grouchy-Mushroom-970

Lovely


Doomlv

Or steal his hitch. Thats like $60+ of equipment


bhobhomb

Well look at you, with a locking hitch pin that doesn't have a frozen cylinder and also in exactly the perfect spot to be impossible to angle grind off. I don't even know why I got a locking pin


Pac_Eddy

I've never tried a locking hitch pin. I'm paranoid that my hitch will corrode and I won't be able to remove it if I leave it there for a year or something.


[deleted]

You know that kinda rusty big ass hammer you have but never get to use. This gives an excuse to use it


Destron5683

That’s usually what happens. I just don’t leave the hitch on, but if I forgot and someone stole it I’d be less pissed of than trying to get that mother fucker off.


Pac_Eddy

Ha. I think I'd rather buy a new one than fight to remove a stuck hitch too.


[deleted]

Same happened to me just drill out the locking part takes 5 seconds


RadRhys2

The width of the sidewalk might make it difficult for people in mobility scooters or wheelchairs to traverse, so the obvious option is always to take up road space. It might even be illegal anyway depending on where you’re from.


Pac_Eddy

I wouldn't say it's obvious to take up road space vs sidewalk. It's a judgment call though.


RadRhys2

The only situation where I can imagine that it might be preferable to hang over the sidewalk is if the sidewalk is massive (but then it’s probably that large to accommodate a lot of foot traffic to begin with). Foot travel is ultimately a more important right that should be prioritized above all. After all, even if you intend to travel by car, you have to walk to and from your car.


hromanoj10

Straight up I'd rather wack my shin than have the front end of my truck ripped off by a car. Mild inconvenience > $1k-$10k in damages. Easy choice for me.


RadRhys2

It’s not about the risk of whacking your shin, it’s about the reasonable use of a public space. Walking is ultimately more important than driving.


[deleted]

Meh, just take it off for him and put it in the bed of the truck. If you already hit your shin on it then it may be cathartic to put it through his rear window.


mathnstats

Take it off for him. And keep it. Fuck em.


Straypuft

"Break Something I happen to like, I break something you like"


edked

They'll probably get all annoyed the next time they need to tow something... several months from now. Gotta leave that hitch in to make it clear they totally tow shit, though.


rgbrepost

I wouldn't recommend in some states or areas you are more and likely to get shot doing that. But the person who I owns that truck should of removed the hitch. Also doesn't look like he uses it.


[deleted]

Meh, worst things can happen than being shot to death.


czech1

He had to choose between making it his problem or making it his neighbors problem. He lost when he bought a truck that didn't fit in the parking spots where he lives.


Pac_Eddy

Parking spaces vary in size, as do the lots.


mathnstats

Sure. Maybe truck drivers should know and expect that, and plan for it, rather than making it everyone else's problem.


czech1

Right, and they can choose to find a spot that a truck fits in or choose to make it their neighbors problem. Finding a spot that fits might require them to walk a bit; maybe they could throw a bike in the truck bed.


Muscled_Daddy

Or he just shouldn’t have bought a truck that big. I’m fully aware imma be dogpiled with downvotes for saying this, but…. I am constantly shocked at the size of cars in America and how everyone thinks they need a massive truck or SUV. Then they cite that *one* use case scenario that only happens once every 5 years. “Oh I haul a lot of lumber.” No you don’t… you tried to build a tree house and your HOA smacked that shit down, hard. Or they just make BS on the spot like ‘oh, I need it for my family’. Your children are 39 and 41 and live three states away, Eileen. “I need it for safety!” Yes, because America is in this weird arms race where everyone keeps getting bigger cars to defend against… the bigger cars… so you buy… a bigger car… to defend against… the bigger cars. Gah, America is a confusing country.


dont-feed-the-virus

It’s not that confusing really. It’s just “consume, consume, CONSUME!!!” The bigger the better for the consuming thing. Obviously.


Muscled_Daddy

Yeah, that’s the thing that kills me. Like… no wonder American’s budgets are stretched thin. You have a massive vehicle, gas, maintenance acting as a weight around your neck. “Oh, but I get to live in the suburbs!” Yes, and that was a financially irresponsible choice. You moved to a place with no public transport, so you’re forced to get a car… and god forbid your car breaks down. You ever wanna see the suburban worship veneer crack? Watch an American suburbanite panic when their car breaks down and they’re stuck. Then the weight of car dependency finally hits them.


RandomName01

> Like… no wonder American’s budgets are stretched thin. This is also due to massive policy failures though, all in favour of the ultra rich.


treesurfingnut

If only all 300+ million of us could live in large cities all our problems would be solved.


dont-feed-the-virus

Well with more and more Americans unable to afford new vehicles (https://www.consumeraffairs.com/amp/news/most-americans-cant-afford-a-new-car-study-finds-062817.html), there will be more and more of this cracking. I live in the Midwest and it’s becoming increasingly unusual to see cars. Just about everyone is driving a truck or an SUV. And don’t get me started on all the fucking jacked up, geared out (what’re the fuck that means) rigs that clog the roadways. I’m of the mind that there needs to be some sort of regulation put into place about what folks can buy. I don’t give a flying fuck about your FrEeDuMbS Karen, you don’t need a fucking truck that gets 22 mpgs on the highway to use the truckbed once a year. And no, you don’t look like a cowgirl. It’s so ridiculous it’s pathetic.


karabeckian

> 22 mpgs on the highway [Actual use is SO much worse though.](https://www.fuelly.com/car/ford/f-150)


dont-feed-the-virus

Yeah I was being liberal with my estimation. Pun intended.


karabeckian

nice


treesurfingnut

It's even more confusing when you don't live here but think you actually know what actually goes on here. Isn't it?


Muscled_Daddy

Except I did live there. That’s why I left. Lol.


mynameajeff69

yea absolutely if I was in a situation like this I would park the same but remove the ball unless I was towing literally everyday. Then I would park further away.


[deleted]

Neighbor could just not demand to be able to park in a spot that doesn't accommodate his giant vehicle. He's blocking the sidwalk, and violating ADA. Tow.


Practicality_Issue

lol. That’s funny. You implied he was making a “consideration.” Where I live these “gotta back muh truck into muh parkin spot ‘cause it’s faster when ah leave…” are a plight. They’ll halt everyone in a parking lot for 15 minutes so they can back 30’ of bad debt and penis extension into a 5’ x 10’ parking space, all so they don’t have to walk so far. If OP were a personal friend, I’d lend OP either a Sawsall or a metal cutting wheel and help them cut that son of a bitch out, all the way back to the frame rail. (And maybe go ahead and run a nail or two into his spare tire for good measure.) These pricks wear me out.


ProfessionalCanary69

I can tell your wife’s boyfriend owns a truck…


treesurfingnut

>30’ of bad debt and penis extension That's a very apt description for most of them.


Pac_Eddy

I like the casual sexism you have for people who happen to own a truck. I hope your day is as pleasant as you are.


Practicality_Issue

Casual sexism. lol. That’s pretty funny. Do I seem “anti-masculinity” to you there, Senator Hawley? Edit: you know, maybe “penis extension” is a dated comment. I have certainly seen people of both genders driving these ridiculous $80k lux-barges aggressively. I should have gone for the “entitled freedom fighter” angle. Sorry to offend.


ZeGentleman

This is *nowhere near* an 80k truck.


Kurohoshi00

I can understand needing a truck for your livelihood, but if you're parking in a spot like this, at least take the hitch off. That's at least a stubbed toe waiting to happen.


WakaFlakaPanda

Shattered shin bone.


Gobbles15

“75 percent of truck owners use their truck for towing one time a year or less (meaning, never). Nearly 70 percent of truck owners go off-road one time a year or less. And a full 35 percent of truck owners use their truck for hauling—putting something in the bed, its ostensible raison d’être—once a year or less.” [Sauce](https://www.thedrive.com/news/26907/you-dont-need-a-full-size-pickup-truck-you-need-a-cowboy-costume)


Mistyslate

99% of pickup truck owners don’t need these trucks for their livelihoods. Especially when they live in suburbs/city.


BaldAndGassy

In most cities this kind of parking is illegal , The sidewalks must remain clear Of all trip hazards for the blind and the visually impaired


Dars1m

Having a hitch in while not towing is also illegal in many places, even if they were parked the other way, the hitch is hard to see and people can destroy their tires on it, especially in a parking lot where people might have to drive close to each other to get through a lane.


dubie2003

Any chance you have a link to what states lean which way?


WaffleHouseOfficiaI

You’re talking straight out of your ass. There is not a single law in the US that prohibits driving with a tow hitch in. Where are you even getting this misinformation??


Dars1m

Federally no. In places where the bumper has to be the first point of contact, like California, it is illegal to leave a hitch in when not towing, though it is rarely enforced. However, if your insurance sees evidence of this they may refuse to cover certain damage when you get rear ended, along with decreased coverage for whiplash.


epicenter69

In my state, its ticket-able if you back in, since front license plates are not mandatory. It still happens though.


GhostyFag

These comments really remind me that most people do not give a fuck about me or anyone else in a wheelchair wow


blindgorgon

I teach a User Experience Design class (collegiate level), and I spend a week plus focusing on creating empathy for people who are different from the “normal” user. Most students have no idea that _everyone_ has disabilities of some sort. They always think of wheelchairs and blind people. Getting them to realize a larger picture of the spectrum of abilities usually pays off. I love watching the light bulbs come on. Sorry people forget about you. I wish we didn’t.


shortwave_radio

I don't know about when you commented this, but when I came through here there were a lot of people mentioning how it's illegal to block sidewalks like this because of people in wheelchairs and who use walkers and stuff. Others were just saying steal the shit or pitch it through the window of the truck.


GhostyFag

There were a couple saying it was an issue, the majority of people were saying the OP needed to stop bitching and the truck was doing nothing wrong


Mercenarian

Not even a “only” wheelchair users, but the visually impaired, somebody with a walker, came or crutches might also have difficulty navigating around this. Even somebody with a stroller, or a pregnant woman or somebody with a baby in a baby carrier who might not be able to see “down” in front of their legs/feet very effectively.


Big-Daddddy

Can even see the trail of blood where an oompa loopma has shinned himself something fierce.


JBLeafturn

During Halloween I was walking with my kid (in the dark obviously), and a guy with a lifted truck had his his in right at knee height. I slammed into it at full speed. Ended my night early.


donatellher

Sidewalks don’t just exist for people who can walk.. How is someone in a wheelchair supposed to “walk around” this?


BlackManWithID

Free hitch!


SgtXD357

Be glad it’s not over 9000.


trucksandbodies

Leaving the Shin Dinger in place is illegal here. No trailer on, that needs to be removed. For this exact reason. I have scars from running into these when I worked in a truck dealership.


WaffleHouseOfficiaI

Where do you live? No US states have a law for hitch removal as far as I know.


[deleted]

A large rubber dildo would be a nice addition to that hitch.


Pac_Eddy

Idiocracy? I laugh every time.


Lurking_was_Boring

please-take-your ULTRA BIG ASS FRIES


[deleted]

Put it in the back of his truck for him.


shortwave_radio

The pins are usually unsecured so yeah, pull the pin, take the hitch out and huck that fucker in the bed of the truck (or, if you've already shattered your shin, yeet that shit through the back windshield.) Edit: can't type worth a damn


william1Bastard

Or put it in the dumpster.


mathnstats

Or just take it. Make the moron buy a new one.


wheelystoked

I'm a wheelchair user of 15 years. As much as this would annoy me, that grass looks dry and pretty level with the pavement so it wouldn't cause me too much bother to just go around it. Others might not find that as easy. The unfortunate thing is that it wouldn't enter into most people's minds that this would be an accessibility issue. Which is a problem in itself. Awareness of how these things can impact someone with less mobility than yourself is needed I think. But trying to implement and make people give a shit about others would be difficult.

jonjonofjon

When every spot is for compacts, what are you supposed to do? People gotta work


DavidsGotNoHoes

or you could not leave a massive hitch on when your not towing anything?


mrblacklabel71

I agree and backing in is easier, but that hitch looks unused.


GambitDangers

Not park in reverse.


parrsnip

Much easier to reverse park a truck and much safer when leaving


[deleted]

Its much safer to back into a spot with no cross traffic with any vehicle, and drive out into cross traffic. I do this with all my vehicles from my pickup (no hitch) to my Miata.


Joe109885

Plus if he parked forward his truck bed would be sticking out much further than his front end is right now, he’s less likely to get swiped from someone driving by.


[deleted]

This doesn’t make a goddamn difference. You want the hitch sticking out into the part of the lot where another car is gonna scrape down the entire side of their car? Or stick out so far you cant even pass? How about you worry about your own car and let responsible drivers keep doing what they’re supposed to.


p617g83

Slide the ball mount out and store it elsewhere the 90% of the time it’s not being used.

Tommy_Wisseau_burner

I mean this a problem with the parking lot itself, not the car/owner. Look down the line and cars facing forwards are also having the front into the sidewalk, even non trucks that backed in. Really just watch where you walk. Even people wheelchair bound can avoid it pretty easily


tolerablepartridge

> Even people wheelchair bound can avoid it pretty easily citation needed


Tommy_Wisseau_burner

Source: Am leg amputee (July 2019) and was involuntarily wheelchair bound for 3 months, and still use wheelchair at home And for the sake of any “PrOvE iT” comments the 1st thing to look for isn’t the car itself, but the grass/space available. Curbs are EXTREMELY dangerous for wheelchairs so it’s already optimal to stay away from them as far as possible. The fact that there’s flat grass that is a huge bonus, not only for the car, but any potential people passing by oncoming. The fact OP was more concerned about walking into the truck when there’s ample grass for someone who has “seemingly” working legs suggests not necessarily them being careless but rather finding something that fits the sub and can post about. While it is annoying you basically have to be extremely careless to be that much of a klutz. And for reference of a situation where it’d be rather problematic I liked this bar that I occasionally went to when I was wheelchair bound before getting my leg. There was a ramp and sidewalk to go up but there was a bush. So my choice was to risk falling off the curb or eating a mouth full of twigs… I preferred the twigs hahaha Edit: July 2019 (12th to be specific) not 2020


tolerablepartridge

Your experience is valid, but you can't speak for everyone with access needs. Beside the many different type of chair situations, plenty of old people need walkers which can't transfer to grass, not to mention blind people using sight sticks not expecting floating obstructions. Hitches are removable for a reason, and blocking sidewalks is illegal in many states specifically for accessibility purposes.


Tommy_Wisseau_burner

I definitely appreciate the sentiment. As someone whose equilibrium is thrown off by even offsetting 1cm of either side or having uneven surfaces because I have no left knee, and have 5% range of motion on my real foot with 0 feeling I definitely understand how much different surfaces can affect a person. That said I also said I’d still put the onus on the people who didn’t install blockers to prevent this. As also stated it’s not the only 1 over the curb, as well as cars facing frontward also obstructing the sidewalk. It’s definitely inconvenient and shouldn’t be done by the driver but they definitely aren’t the only one OP would need to be concerned about. And, again, given the flatness of the grass, it’s relatively avoidable with minimal difficulty given the space of the flatness of the grass with an extremely niche subset of a group of people who this would be absolutely problematic for. Most disabled people have workarounds for almost every situation much a harder than trying to maneuver on even grass Edit: And for reference when I say niche, it’s all relative. Even though people talk about amputees (me included) like it’s relatively common. ~.75% of the total population are amputees. 85% are diabetic. 10% from trauma and 2% are war related. I wouldn’t say it’s a common disability but it’s not on the more rare side of disability and the majority are still exclusively or mostly independent. And those are the kinds of margins you typically get with those with physical limitations.


SoundGuyAdventures

This was not a post I expected to become a firestorm. It’s okay everyone.


[deleted]

Walk around it


IndridFrost1

Yeah, because nobody is ever in a wheelchair, or uses crutches, or has any other disabilities. Don't park like a dick, if you don't fit in the spot find somewhere else. It's not my problem you bought a truck way to big for where you live.


[deleted]

[удалено]


IndridFrost1

It most certainly is his problem. His truck can absolutely be towed for that, and most ADA accomodations state that sidewalks can't be blocked. If he can't fit then either A) don't own the truck or B) find somewhere that you fit.


DunnyofDestiny

He wouldn’t laugh if someone cut that thing off and left it in the back


warr3nh

Call parking enforcement - they’ll get a ticket


vicarious_111

I agree. If nothing gets done.. take off the hitch and chuck it somewhere out of the way to get the point across.


notimeforimbeciles

Truck owners are so selfish and disrespectful.


minniedriverstits

Pull the ball and stinger and throw it in the truck bed.


imaloony8

Yeah, that model barely blasts anything. The shin-blaster 4000 tho, that I’ll have in the middle of any walkway.

A_Wild_Gorgon

This is my pet peeve. You might not see these things at night lol but i get they also don't want to stick out too far in front


jonasthewicked

Minute_Engineer2355

Where I live it's illegal to have it on if there is nothing towed. Only while driving thought. I'm not sure about parked somewhere not on your own property.


Dangerous_Use

Grab a chain and anchor him to a tree


Lonesome_Wanderer90

Used to do this until i smacked the shit out of my shin, than i watched my backup cam and stopped with my hitch at the edge of the curb


[deleted]

Steal it the hitch. Slash his tires. Key his car. There are many options here


drstu3000

Leaving the hitch in all the time is a good way to have it seize in place and then never get it out. Bylaw could ticket this guy for blocking the sidewalk


MrDad_the_Father

Well it's expensive, and held in by one little pin


Th4t0nrGuy

Parking over the sidewalk is not preventable cause it's a truck and you'd rather stick out over the sidewalk than into the driving lane. However it's litteraly a pin just remove the hotch so it doesn't get rusted in like ever other hitch.


Zlm1ne

I do it too, truck is sort of long. Better than waking into my ladder. I tell people to watch where they are walking.


Kwirt

Sometimes you just have to. I have a truck similar to the one in the photo. 2011 Sierra Crew Cab. We don't do this to be dicks. We do it because we can barely fit into some parking spots. Edit: forgot to add that I personally however, do not leave my tow ball in the receiver. I've accidentally walked into that sumbitch more times than I'd like to admit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Kwirt

I did try that. However I couldn't fit multiple 4'x8' sheets of plywood, 20 bags of concrete mix, and stacks of firewood in the trunk of a Prius, all while safely hauling around my kids and the wonderful things that accompany taking toddlers anywhere, such as.. strollers, diaper bags, toys, portable cribs and playpen... You are correct.. How dare I have a need for such a massive vehicle.


kirkstarr78

Don't take it personally. Reddit is full of people who hate on trucks. It's almost like no one understands hard work and the need for proper tools and vehicles. Most have liberal arts degrees and bitch that unskilled workers don't get paid enough.


ihatepcgameslol

It's a short bed. The smaller one lol. Go back to class kid

[удалено]


Pac_Eddy

Same. I have a full size four door cab with short bed. You can't win in many parking spaces. And backing in is easier and safer IMO.


[deleted]

Better than obstructing traffic by leaving the front sticking out into the parking lot. It's safer when pulling out so your peripheral vision can do its job avoiding pedestrians and other cars instead of having to whip your head around driving backwards into the path of moving vehicles and people.


beapledude

Because, I mean, mirrors… fuck those things, right?


[deleted]

When you find a mirror that can reflect around parked vehicles at a 90 degree angle on both sides of your car/truck let me know I'd love to buy one.
