Finally get to drive my car in a week!!

I get to drive my Max for the first time in over 2 months in a week cause I've been away at college. I've been going through withdrawals lately and dream about my car almost every night now. Yes something is probably wrong with me. Anyone else going through these symptons while they're away at college?

Not exactly the same, but i've been facing a similar situation. Two weeks ago my GF wrecked her car, and since we live together and i can get a ride to work, she's been driving my car to work (she commutes an hour each way). So every night when she gets home i find myself making up excuses to go for a night drive, "hey baby, i'm gonna get some ice cream, you want some." Or, i'm gonna go buy a magazine, you need anything?" Okay i'm lieing, i've just been gettting ice cream every night, but my weight problem has nothing to do with the issue.

At least you get to keep the mileage low, I guess that can be an advantage.

I thought I was the only one, I don't care how far I have to walk to school as long as my car is as secluded as possible from the other POS's, and when I can't find parking in an endspot, I'll park next to expensive cars, I figure they'll be careful when they open their doors.

Remember, drive it like you stole it. That should bring back the memories.












...but within reason.

I've only done one oil change this year. That's how much I haven't driven my Max

In 1 1/2 years, she's only seen 7500 miles.
