My neighbor parked a 30+ foot RV in the grass of his front lawn. Fuck! It is a 12X33 foot Trojan Fucking Wall!! I can't see anything down the street at all. He buys this brand new RV and doesn't want to pay $150 a month to park it somewhere. Fuck!! Did I mention he is Christian

Are there any city or home-owners association rules that would prohibit him from doing this?  Sounds bad for the grass, and bad for your property values.

[ConureDelSol]

VANDALIZE IT.

 

Except don't.  I don't think they let you post on the internet in jail.

 

Does it prevent you from being able to see anything coming at the end of your driveway when you try to back out?  That could be some sort of fire code violation...

 

You could always bring it up to other neighbors and see if it bugs them too.  Then put together a letter signed by all of them.  Neighborhood associations can be deadly, deadly things.

I don't live in an HOA area. Thats normally nice, except for this. Thank you for bringing up safety- because I can't even see my kid pedal down the street. Its horrible. Im trying my best to be civil. When you look at it-- its so wrong. Im pretty sure he is a foot over on my property- but that really doesn't fix it either. Im gathering as much info as I can so there is no argument. I figure that it is legal or it is not. 

If its legal, no point on arguing. If its not, no point on arguing. I don't think I could handle a civil discussion on the matter. My irritation would probably take over.

I look forward to doing exactly this kind of thing to my neighbors when I buy a house in the next few weeks.  No HOA!

Hmmm . . . I wonder what the local police would think about that.

[J.W.]

Im going to half to talk to them, and ask them to move it. Im just so irritated by it that Im worried that I will be an asshole. After all, I guard prisoners- I may do this sort of thing all the time- I just usually do it with authority. I don't want to make the situation awkward- but then again- it already is

[movingon]

All you can really do is talk to then, and call you're city and see what ordinances they have for this kind if thing. i'm not sure what him being Christian has to do with it, except that its probably fueling your anger, so don't let it. Its like him saying you don't like it because you're atheist (or whatever your beliefs) Give yourself time to cool off and then have a civil conversation.

I was thinking its an RV for Jesus. 

[par4dcourse]

I thought this thread was about how to fuck an RV. Carry on.

Seriously though, I have a problem with nosy neighbors.  If it's MY yard, then by god I'll do what the hell I want with it.  That's why I can't stomach an HOA.

 

If the guy isn't doing anything illegal, then it's none of your business.

Maybe he parked it there cause he doesn't like looking at your house.  You should move your house.

[J.W.]

lol.. you know.. screw it.. I will plant bougainvilleas. He will have to trim them because if he doesn't, his shit will get fucked up

At your local hardware store, there are zip-ties made of Kevlar.

 

You want the ones that are 18 - 24" long.

 

One night, take a few of the tie-wraps, go under his rear axle, and zip-tie them to the axle.

 

Not to anything else, just the axle like you're giving it a bracelet. Do it on one or both sides of the vehicle. Make sure you get either just behind the tire, or as far under the RV as possible. You shouldn't be able to just see it from the ground, it should be as hidden as possible.

 

Then, the next time he takes the RV out, he won't park it next to your house when he returns, he'll park it at the dealership or a mechanic, because his rear axle will be, "making a really funny noise, like rat-tat-tat-tat-tat... it speeds up and slows down too. I think my differential is going!"

 

Of course he'll eventually find it, but man oh man, you'll have fun dancing in the light of your burning bridges.

I've seen this done, and it works well. But keep in mind that a motorhome like this doesn't have an exposed axle shaft. The zip ties need to go around the drive shaft in this case.

When I was growing up there was a church group that did tours and had a giant bus but they paid to have a parking pad laid beside the house so the bus didn't detract from the neighborhood. Its a minor investment that everyone will appreciate.

Officer, there's a HUGE RV parked next to my house.  On occasion I will see strange smoke coming from it, and weird incoherent screaming of phrases like "YEAH BITCH" and "I'm gonna add some Chili P!"

 

That should get the attention of the cops.
