Naw, I was in full control. There was plenty of room where they had closed off that part of the parking lot, so I saw no reason to park the new car within door dinging distance of the other RXs.
But, lol, I will tell a little story about when we took it for a test drive with the dealer. He took us to an empty parking lot. At one point he showed me (the driver) the parking assist when you put it in reverse. So he told me to follow the white lines and back into the parking spot.
Well, there was a big solid white line right down the display, so I followed it back and parked. So he asked, "Why did you park here?", that being directly mid way between two spots. I pointed to the display and the white line and asked, "Aren't I supposed to follow this?"
Nope, that the the sun glaring on the reverse video cam! He meant to use the white lines painted on the ground marking the parking spots.
It was a big AH-HA moment with the new car!
