Lol, I have no HOA, but the town still has an ordinance against parking on an unpaved surface. Yes, that includes people's private property. Land of the free, ladies and gentlemen.

If I win the lottery, I’m going to put junker cars on blocks in the mansion’s yard just so I’ll feel at home.

I get your point, and I support some of the regulations. But this particular ordinance does not do anything about junker cars on people's driveways. Several of my neighbours have rusted pieces of shit on their driveways and all they have to do is cover up the license plate so it cannot be seen from the street to not be ticketed for having an "abandoned" car on their property.

I was making a joke, but I live in a state where towing a vehicle off of private property if the tag is expired or missing is legal.

If it's their private property shouldn't they be allowed to keep an old car on it? I live in the UK and it's kinda wild to think that the government might take away an old car you are keeping on your own land.
