I do. Just curious...


It also seems like nobody uses their garages for their vehicles these days. Do you?

No (though I suppose in the summertime I wouldn't really mind doing it myself) and yes. Garages are quite useful for keeping your car from getting more dirty than it already is.

1.. my garage is wide enough.. it use to be longer but previous owners took off a chunk of it to make a workshop room/storage room.. actually pretty handy.. But I get awful close to running into that wall often.

Garages are almost always used for storage due to no basements in S. Florida...and no need to garage vehicles.

Cars also stay cleaner down there due the largest air filter in the country, the Everglades.

Up here we would spend all of our time hand washing vehicles, as the layer of pollution forms a film within 2 days of doing so.

I do, and BTW, using this opportunity to again, thank you for introducing me to junkman. :)

The only time I go to a machine, is in a pinch to clean the salt off the car.

Mine is 1 and it is just wide/long enough for my Durango with maybe 2-3 feet of space to spare front/back and side/side without anything stored inside, but I store stuff in the sides.... my bag sets.... my old treadmill.... garbage/recycling cans in the back, etc.

I back into it and ive nearly taken a mirror off a few times lol.... only positive is the 2 car garage units pay more in association fees.

I have a few scratches and scrapes on my truck from dis fucking garage doe.... need to look at getting them repaired.

Real men use their garages for more than parking. Feminized men are whipped, and the garage is used for storage.

I used to wash my car. Now my friend owns a car wash and I get it done for free.

I also used to park in the garage, but now there's just too much shit in there, including another car that doesn't work

I think our City's garbage can and recycle can take up that much room. They are so huge it's Special person.

A co-worker just informed me he has a subscription to a car wash..$17 / month for unlimited car washes... He can't go more than a day without washing his car. I've told him he's nuts. (He's car is a 2001 Intrepid.. good condition, but not something I'd fret about always keeping so clean).

I wish I had a friend who owned a car wash so I could get free washes.

That seems kinda silly. I usually only want to wash my car during the winter anyway. I can't really see the point in washing my car so often in the non winter months.
