I HAVE AN ACT CLUTCH. I can count the number of people that have driven my car on one hand. My dad, my two best friends, and a friend last night cause I was drinking. WELL let me just tell you how poorly that dude drove my Max. My other friend said he felt like we shoulda been at a headbanging concert for how much his head got jerked around. We didnt stall but I am pretty sure it couldnt have been driven worse. We spun tires everytime he went to start...even when he started in second gear!!!!!!!!!! Jerk, jerk, jerk, every gear. I know it wouldnt have been smart but I know I coulda driven better drunk.

Letting my Max take that kind of a beating, even though it was only for about 2 miles makes me never want to let another person drive my car again.

DO YOU GUYS let people drive your car? Many of my friends are not enthusiasts and they do not understand why I never let people drive my car....maybe they will now.

 

I let my mother drive it three times only because she gave me her new car (escalade baby!) and I let one of my friends drive it one time because I was drunk and didn't want to kill anyone or get a DUI. One time my brother actually took my car for a short spin without asking me. So only on five occassions have people other than myself drove my car.

 

me, my wife, and the Nissan tech to change my oil! no one else!

 

The only 2 people , other than me, who have driven my Maxima have been my brother and my best freind.... Other than that, nobody else is allower to drive it.... Im very protective of my car... lol....

 

I voted No. However if i know you and you can drive stick shift, i have no problems with you driving my car.

 

I love people who SAY they can drive stick... and try to learn on your car...

I dont let anyone drive my car really anymore... no one in my family drives it... since my dad told me one xmas when he stole my car that my 19"s have absolutely no compliance and they dot go over ruts smoothly... no ****....

 

well thats why i say i have to know the person. Then i will pretty much know if they can drive stick. The only person who can drive stick that can't drive my car is my brother.

 

The only people that have drived my car besides me are
1. My fiance
2. Best friend
3. Fiance's dad & mom...gotta get in good with the family
That's it!!!

 

haha I witnessed someone telling my friend that he can drive stick... and hopping into his E46 M3 and... you know the story...

some people are just 'drivers' the people who can just drive... aware of their surroundings and just blessed with the skill of piloting a car... even then the Maxima isnt the eaaasiest car to jump into

I figure ... if I dont let people drive my car then its prefect because if anything happens I have no one to blame cept myself

 

best friend and cousin...thats it

and like carnal said..if anything happens, i want to be responsible for it.

 

thats the truth.

 

My wife

 

exactly

 

Ummm, that would have to be a negative. I let my Mechanic and myself drive the car, no one else. And he can only drive into the shop, well, sometimes I do that

 

just me and my brother..my dad and mom drive it but only to move the car in and out the driveway when im lazy to move it..

 

Not a single person besides me has driven my car since I bought it this summer. My mom wanted to the day I brought it home but I was about to go out and told her I didn't want to have to re-adjust the seat and she could drive it some other time but she hasn't asked again.

 

my dad

and i'll let a few friends drive as long as i'm riding in the car.

 

Me, myself, and i, and my girlfriend. No one else. id let my dad but he has never asked. All this and i have an auto, which is nearly idiot proof, unless your one hell of an idiot.

 

as long as i know you and you don't fly over speed bumps then you can take it out with or without me in the car

 

my mommie taught me how to drive stick.. so how could i say no to my beloved mom whom i love and adore so much.. i love you MOM!!!!

 

Ive only let 4 people drive my car, Thast because they were teaching me how to drive Stick, But one time I was really sick so I let my freind drive it. I dont trust anyone with my car, Its like asking me to borrow my soul, I worked my @ss off for my ride, begging and pleading wih my parents,

 

I taught my mom and my brother to drive stick on my car. Then my clutch burned out so I ended all lessons.
I have let several friends drive my car also, but I let them drive mine in exchange for a test drive of their car, and I have to be in the front seat while they drive it. There have been 3 friends I think.
1. Friend with Alfa Romeo Milano 5 spd.
2. Friend w/ 96 Ford Aspire 5-spd. He taught me how to drive stick in that car before I got my Max so I felt obligated to let him drive my car and be jealous forever after.
3. Friend w/ modified '91 Mustang GT 5.0 5-spd

I recently let another friend drive my car because he wants to buy a 5 spd Maxima, but this one was a mistake. He likes to keep it in lower gears for some reason. We'll be cruising at a steady 50-55, and he'll just keep it in 3rd, revving at like 3500. After he finally understood to just put it in 5th when cruising at a high speed, he came to a stop sign, forgot it was in 5th, tried to start from a stop in 5th, and stalled obviously. Then he got anxious, peeled out from the stop sign, and then shifted into 2nd w/o the clutch! The sound of that, plus the thought of what just happened within my transmission forced me to the decision that only skilled family members or current Maxima owners will have the chance to drive my car from now on.

 

I only let my girlfriend drive my car. And I wanna give a big shout out to my lovie blue Diane, because she might be reading this. Love you girl!

 

dood.. is that Diane from NYC? the cute one? damn.. you know her too? we use to go to school together we use to have lots of fun together too

 

That just doesn't sound right

 

Bill that's not funny!

 

Stop browsing my homepage, my name is not Bill.

 

Ok Billy Bob!

 

Bill is moderator bill99gxe, it was a joke when i had put my real name on my home page and he caught it, then i quickly changed it to his name. So again, my name is not Bill.

 

Got it Bob!

 

oh geez...watch yourself

 

ask Diane.. she knows my real name

 

She has no clue!

 

she is lying

 

She doesnt seem to know. Where did you go to school?

 

ask her about the black dude she use to mess with from the bronx

 

The Bronx??? First off what does she look like?

 

My Dad, my best friend, and my little brother - once.

Now that I'm going to be a 5spd, that number will be dropped to 1...mtrai760, because he helped with the tranny install, and already has a 5spd Maxima.

 

With my next car, nobody is driving it but me. Last person that drove my car totalled it

 

y'all need to take the convo about diane to PM

whats up with the shout outs to girls and moms anyway???
Whos mom goes on Maxima.org???
