I always park waaaay out in a parking lot where no one else would want to park and walk.

It's never an expensive car - always some POS just itching to put that first ding in my car.
Why is that?

Because there is always someone who sees this car parked out in the middle of no where and thinks "Oh, he/she thinks their car is so hot so they park it out here....I'll show 'em. I'll part next to them".
The problem is by being so far out, it stands out...gets attention...and someone is going to mess with you. Face it, there are folks who are jealous of your car. Some will just mess with you by parking next to you. Others will actually damage the car.
I have a solution that works pretty good. Don't park waaay out. Instead, park in the medium zone, where there are cars here and there. You can still park alone, but you don't stand out. You blend in so the crazies don't see you. Or if they do see you, they don't get a burr up their butt thinking you're better than them by parking waaay out there.
