This is not out in some rural town. This is in Portland, OR about 2 miles from downtown. Personal vehicles this large are simply incompatible with urban living and pressure their owners to continually break traffic law. Technically that Miata is parked as close to the stop sign as it can legally be, but as the Denali doesn't fit in many places around here it's owner is compelled to park across both the stop sign and the crosswalk.
You mean "look at my massive truck payment". People like this are the reason those of us who do use trucks for what they're made for aka work, have an ever shrinking used market and a non existent new market for normal trim trucks to pick from. These idiots have shown the manufacturers that people buy these pavement princess's for no reason other than to show off.
