Today morning, i just kept staring at my car .

It happens to all car lovers. I can stare at my car for hours together (specially the engine bay)

Today morning, i just kept staring at my car .

Ha Ha. I used to do, but stoped now a days, at-least not frequently.

Twice my sparky met with some kind of accident, as soon as I star at her and though myself "Wow, my car looks great man".. Bang, my sparky met with some accident. Once near velachery and right fender gone and replaced. Second time during my Tuticorin trip and this time left fender.

From then onward, sentimentally I felt that it is because of me staring at and proud of my sparky.

now a days I just have a look at her

• as soon as I finish washing her
• when am sitting in a distance place, or first floor or any other floors of the building and if i could see my sparky from there, then I will look her

But never think that my spakry looks good (That is the true ) and felt proud kind of feeling.

BTW, How many times you have felt bad while thinking that whether you have locked you car or not and you are stuck in a place where you can not go and check or your car is parked little bit far away. (100% it would have got locked).

And how do you drive your car?

@sethumurugan : Option D - the 3:9 position .

 

[amit_shimla]

For people who strongly feel that cars too have feelings all these points are valid. I too hate when some one asks for my car keys and I never ever borrow someone else's car too.
I strictly follow the points 1, 4, 6, 7, 11, 12, 20, 21 mention by Sam.

I do in all positions shown, depending on the mood and other circumstances. However, Option D - 3:9 or 2:10 O Clock position is the right one.

 

[pradeep_wheelz]

When I park my car and start walking away from it I start looking back at her even for no reasons. When I get back I unlock&lock the door from distance so that I feel like she's waiting for me .

During monsoon, I carry the old news papers under the seat. I lay it on the all the mats and change them after every drive if found soiled.. So mats remind clean.

and for me too it depends on mood mostly B or D

 

[jayesh]

mostly i drive in D position(habit from MDS training).
Its A when my hands feel tired, but for a very little time.

Option A: While driving through lazy traffic (frequently) or rough patch roads
Option B: Rarely when am lazy listening to music and drving on highways
Option C: Never tried this position
Option D: On highways at high speeds - 9-3 position comes by default for me...

 

[sethumurugan]

Mostly I follow B. In highways in high speed automatically my hands go to D position (FEAR?) other two very occationally.

 

[allhyundaicars]

^^ right hand's elbow near the window, wrist close to my face and left hand on steering B position I just noticed this today.

For me

Position A&B - While driving through slow traffic.
Position D - While driving at moderate speed and while driving on highway.

Position C - No offence to anyone, but this driving position is really unsafe and ridiculous. Sometime i try this position. But controlling the vehicle in this driving position is near impossible for me.
