Thank you sir! his main concern was the stench so the little bit of staining that was left was fine by him, i told him i could get them out but he didn't care since he had nice rubber floormats to go back in

Some people are lazy and just don't care about the appearance of their cars. I get embarrassed when my Silver Monte gets dirty - I just can't drive it that way.

dont even get me started on peoples interior...

...too late:p


i have never had a friend (even those who cared about their cars)
who didnt have a floorboard full of trash. everything from rusty old car parts to fastfood bags and spilled drinks.'

i usually ended up driving everywhere so i could actually have room for my feet, but when id get home, my backseat would be full of trash and dirt. call me obsessive, but i like to have room to breathe in my car
