Do you wash it and wax it? Vacuum it? Keep it clean and well maintained by doing the scheduled maintenance on time?

OR

Do you drive it, put gas in it and replenish the windshield washer frequently?

1 as much as possible.

Do you wash it and wax it? ...A few times a year. More in winter to keep the salt off.

Vacuum it?... Once a year.

Keep it clean... KEEP it clean? Nah.

Well maintained by doing the scheduled maintenance on time?... Oil changes every 3k. Everything else about 10,000 miles after its due.

Do you drive it, put gas in it and replenish the windshield washer frequently? ....I get windshield fluid free w/oil change.

I also drive it and put gas in it (if you run out of gas, it stops running, dumbassssssssss).

Yes, _I_ do the scheduled maintenance on my car on time.

Unlike Infinity driving **** who take their cars in for service...

For me, washing the car is driving real fast in a rain storm. I do vacuum it out regularly and keep up with the maintance schedule according to the owners manual.

Wash it once or twice a year. Change oil regularily. usually blow off the owners manual maintenance because I think they over do it. Like engine flush and changing your transmission fluid and filter every 20,000. I used to do the flush myself wuth the Prestone kit until I learned just how bad the antifreeze was to kids and pets.

I don't know if you remember but that kit came with a hose connectioon that you hooked directly into your heater hose and a discharge connection that replaced the radiator cap. You just flushed into the driveway.

BAD.....VERY BAD...

I had it done on my wife's car at 45,000 and sold it at 96,000. Did the transmission once, I think at 60,000.

I'm not good at it, but the cars are built better these days and can go longer if you don't drive them like an idiot. I know I should be better at doing the recommended, I just don't have that kinda cash. Those recommended maintenance actions are bread and butter to the dealers.

Living in SoCal, it is more reasonable for me to do it as often as I do. Not much bad weather to ruin the job when I'm done, ya know?

I keep my car very, very clean inside and out. When it gets dusty, I wash it. Wax it at least 3-4 times a year.

I do the maintenance religiously. (or as TG says, I have it done... whatever)

I just 'encouraged' my son to wash/wax/vacuum his car. The filth on it was irritating the **** out of me. I helped.

I change the oil regularly.

Do the scheduled maintenance myself.

I never wash or wax. I drive on too many gravel roads for that.

Crap.... the CCN (Car Care Nazi) is on his way!

Lawdy! Lawdy! I'ze gotsta take ta steppin' and make it SHINE!

Feets, do yough stufs!

You live on the frozen tundra. What's the point of cleaning it?

Maintenance, yeah. Rinse, yeah.

Wash? Why?

14 gallons of greyhound drool.

Well... just rinse off the passenger's seat, then, wouldja?

yessir

93k, I've washed twice and never waxed.

Oil changed every 5k.

I will go to a special place in car hell

The washing part I get, but I'm curious just exactly how you change oil on a horse.....

I live in my car, it's a damned mess..

The only maintenance I can't do myself is mount/balance tires and wheel alignments, otherwise I do all the other repairs myself but if it requires more than two hands my dad and/or uncles have always been willing to help out.

Wash about once or twice a month, haven't waxed it for two years... it still shines. Vacuumed out weekly.

Why do you ask, do you want to start doing the work for me? :-)~

None of it really matters unless...
