I've even got her convinced she will have to wear surgical booties over her shoes when riding in my car. I've yet to make up my mind on this one yet. hehe. One easy way to kick start my diet is by driving my 300C everywhere. Since absolutely NO FOOD will be allowed in the car, I won't be tempted to drive by McD's, Sonic, Whataburger, and Wendy's for a "quick snack". If we ever have kids, my kids may have to wait until they're potty trained. Neither of my dogs have a chance in hell of riding in my car! The kids are 50-50 at the moment.

That just about sums it up.

I don’t blame you one bit on most of that….especially the eating part. I few weeks ago I was going to a conference and offered to drive another associate with me. When I went to get him he had a Styrofoam cup with coffee in it. I wouldn’t let him drink it in my car and he didn’t want to get rid of it so he stood outside and gulped it down. He wasn’t happy with me in the least…but sorry…no food or drinks in the ride.

Luckily I have fish as pets and they don't travel....no kids either.

there are days where I wish I owned an old POS pickup and could do that....

I hope his coffee wasn't fresh and pipin' hot!!! That would suck. I will allow drinks - must have a lid, must be held at all time by the owner of the drink (don't trust cup holders), oh and I have a strict "You spill, you pay for detailing my entire car" policy. So far no one has spilt in my truck!

My wife's '05 CRV on the other hand is in WAY worse shape than my '99 Dodge Ram. She has assed out that car in so many ways it ain't funny. At first, I would try to clean it up (on the inside anyways) whenever I drove it. But then I figured, why the heck am I doing this?! Its her car, if she wants to drive in filth everyday...then so be it. It still drives me crazy.

I forgot to mention that I warned him the day before we left and he forgot. He is a notorious slob and I really didn’t want to take the chance. I do have some friends who are as meticulous as I am that I wouldn’t worry about.

Your wife “assing” out a car just cracked me up….reminded me a skit on one of those comedy shows where they kept saying in their funkiest urban slang “it smells like ass up in here” !

Luckily it doesn't smell as bad as it looks. It just looks like a tornado ripped through there. No office slobs will step foot near my ride. I will allow "those people" to view my car from 10 feet away. No closer. Their mere existance may ruin the resale value in some slight way!! I can't afford to take that chance! hahaha

Oh, as for the wife, for some reason she only treats her car this way (luckily). She doesn't treat the new house that way - everything is neat and tidy in here. In no way does it resemble her car.

And yes, I HAVE double parked(not quadrupled though!) far,far, far away from anyone or anything, so I don't piss anyone off. But sometimes I can't find a suitable spot, and when that happens, I DON'T PARK MY CAR. It happens quite often where I drop my wife off at the doors and wait, with my car(yes, my paranoia has started an argument or two). Or I just go home and try again another day. Sometimes it takes a good 45 mins to find a spot...... I'm not kidding!

i try and find a spot far awhile but when i come out some idiot parks next to me...like are you kiddin....i find a spot thats not too car but not too close..seems to be workin for me

Yea, those are the idiots I feel like keying when I get back to my car. Again, a disclaimer, I've yet to actually key a car. The thought passes through my little head everytime it happens though!
