I have a red twingo in my neighborhood and even compared to normal sized cars it's a pipsqueak. So every time I pull up to park, I think there's an open spot only to be greeted with its bright red bumper. I know I shouldn't be mad, but I still call him "the red cunt" every time.
Humans are funny creatures. You could also get annoyed by the giant vehicle blocking your view of the small one, but giant vehicles are "normal" and therefore unremarkable.
With "normal" I meant sedans or station wagons. Anything that has a roof lower than your head while standing upright really.
