How many turn and look?

Ok, I'll be the first one to admit that after I park my car in a parking lot, as I walk away from it......I always have to turn around and look back at the car. I've actually been doing that for the last 22 years. LOL

I never bother with the cheap gas mileage cars I drive, but when it comes to any of the nice cars I've owned.......I just have to turn and look back at it. Even though I know it hasn't changed since the last time I looked at it,.....I just can't help myself. I think it's because I want to see what other people see as it's sitting there.

So,.....how many other people turn and look at their car after parking it?

HAHA.....NICE.....Im definately guilty....One time I was in a crowded parking lot and of course I did the traditional head turn from about 10ft away and almost walked into the back of a suburban....with that, i stopped looking at my car and started looking to see if anyone just seen me do that

I do it no matter what I happen to be driving at the time- whether its my Z, her Z, my Jeep ect...I think its just to make sure its not still moving. Guess I'm just a little paranoid thats all- its not just to take a look back and check it out.

LOL... I was just talking about this with my roomate like last week...

How many of you have seen that commercial on speed about this? Its like one of the funniest commercials Ive ever seen... Its just a bunch of guys that constantly keep looking back at their car (not sure what the product is off hand) but the last guy is shutting his garage door and he keeps looking under the door while it closes, and eventually lays on the ground before it closes... its just funny as hell.

But yeah, Im guilty.

Look all the time. Look out the window in my living room all the time too. I think the comercial Paarman is talking about is for Armor All.
