Beware of the home owner's association. Considered this country's most basic
, ruthless unit of government, HOAs are typically organized and manned by
retirees with little better to do than tell you what to do with your
property – something A.J. Vizzi recently learned the hard way. When Vizzi
purchased his home in Odessa, Florida, he was told he would be allowed to
park his Ford F-350 Super Duty in his home's driveway, even though the
neighborhood's rules forbade keeping vehicles anywhere other than the garage
. The truck didn't fit in the home's garage.

The local HOA soon changed its mind, and before long a lawsuit ensued. In
2008, a judge ruled in Vizzi's favor, but the association quickly appealed
the decision. In March, a second judge sided with Vizzi, and the courts
awarded him $187,000 in legal fees to be paid by the HOA. In total, the
association claims that the ordeal has cost over $300,000, including the
cash it now has to pay to Vizzi. Take a look after the jump to watch a local
news report on the legal battle. Thanks for the tip, Sea Urchin!
