It was foggy, and I could swear he was wiping the car down?

Well, although I have not been in over 10 years, that video erased any notion of bringing my Jaguar to Burning Man. LOL

Found these for either ejecting your passenger or taking out your frustrations. Now if we can only get the fake missiles to protrude out the exterior front ?

So now I have a pair of chopsticks in the glovebox.

Been there. Done that.

I don't mind getting the car dirty at all. Hell, I've put almost 30k on a two year old car. But I am the guy that will pull off to detail it at a travel plaza on the NY thruway. Ask my wife.

So it's possibly true you were cleaning your car in the wild blueberry field in Maine, in the fog and occasional drizzle and I wasn't delusional ( I still may have been delusional).

I had my growler puddle lights installed for all of a week before my spousal unit noticed them and ridiculed me relentlessly for their absurdity, and I took them off. She’s the only person whose aesthetic opinion has any impact on me. If you pm me with your address I’ll mail them to you.
