You have also displayed an unyielding lack of understanding as to the experience that leads folks to park their cars for the salt season. As such, do you really think that you're qualified to display a self-righteous position, when its inherent reach is limited by an apparent lack of comprehension?



This is some of my detailing gear. You're right; I'm too lazy to wash my car.


Folks who store their cars want to continue using and enjoying them for a longer time, hence the desire to keep them in one piece.
dude, stay on the topic, if you need to take your "i'm the holy car washer" pain out somewhere, at least do it in a pm or something, give this guy back his thread, which ive said a few times.

You're right. I've forced you to post endlessly, trying to display a holier-than-thou stance without so much as clue as to the constraints involved on salted roads. I've also made you demean those who choose to preserve their cars by pointing to pathetically lame Mickey Mouse solutions that have no hope of reliving the problem. Please forgive me for showing the lack of foundation in your arguments.

...give this guy back his thread, which ive said a few times.
There's no record of that taking place. At least have the guts take responsibility for your actions instead of making up fairy tales.

The gas will get old and clunk up if you don't stabilize it...u need that. Also remember to put fuel in it it does not need to be full but more than half way... If not your gas line CAN freeze. Oil before storing... I have stored my car for 5yrs now.... Never no problem. Some years I don't even start it until spring. Also I leave tires on...no need to remove em.
