How clean is your car?

[yvr girl]

Poll question: How clean is your car?

Do tell...

[LeftyMom]

1. I just cleaned out the interior

but it needs vacuumed and the exterior is overdue to be washed.

[GOPisEvil]

2. I don't keep trash in it, but it needs to be washed, and cleaned inside.

[djeseru]

7. Really?

Looks a lot better than mine! :)

And you don't have speaker issues. :o

[GOPisEvil]

11. True...it's not really that bad.

But, I need to vacuum out the driver's area. Lots of leaves and dirt down on the floor.

[ghostsofgiants]

3. So clean that I can't even see it.

[Xithras]

4. Err....I washed it in October.

It's a white car, but actually looks kinda tan. I have this thing about washing my car during the winter because it just seems like such a waste.

5. Inside, very clean

Outside, kid of sloppy

My car's only two days old!

[skygazer]

6. I keep my car pretty clean

It needs a wash right now but there's no garbage or anything in it and everything is meticulously organized. I'm an organizer. :)

[trackfan]

8. Mine's pristine, in a way: I've never washed it in 5 1/2 years

It doesn't look too bad either!

9. i live out of my car

books everywhere. clothes here and there. old wrappers from taco bell. red bulls. shoes for rugby, change of shoes for the beach. um, lots of alcohol wipes recently and did i mention books?

everytime friends ride with me, they have to move lots of stuff around in order to be able to sit comfortably.

10. I can sit down fine

but my passengers will opt for the last choice.

12. I have a toddler. You tell me ;)

[yvr girl]

15. Let me guess

kiddy debris everywhere.

[Taverner]

22. That, crackers, and dried slobber

[Dave Reynolds]

13. I swamp it out

when the trash in the back starts to fall over the front seats, or if there is threat of a passenger.

[Benfea]

14. I have french fries YEARS old under the seats...

…but at least I can say there isn't so much clutter in there that you have to shovel crap around just to sit down. What clutter I have is mostly in between the front seats (CDs, mapquest printouts, gum wrappers, etc.).

33. I have the oatmeal bowl graveyard which needs to be cleaned

out and moved to the dishwasher. I eat my breakfast at the stop lights on the way to work and the bowl does not always make it back into thehouse with me in the evening.


a spare jacket, spare umbrella, a pillow and the sun shade are generally in the back seat, and I can never seem to get rid of the leaf crumbs that ride in on my shoes.

16. I dunno... you tell me

This is how it looked last July:

[samplegirl]

30. Squeaky

good job!

:hi:

[flvegan]

17. Pretty clean inside, but the outside? Not so much.

It's not filthy, but it's been a couple weeks since the last wash.

[scarlet_owl]

18. My car is a mess, inside and out.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

19. I never wash my car

I wait for the rain to take care of it.

I clean the windows; and if somebody besides me is going to ride in it, I'll empty the trash, and occasionally vacuum. But that's enough for me.

[politicat]

20. Inside is okay - needs to be vacced. Outside - dirty.

It's winter. We don't use salt on the roads, so there's no point in washing it and there's no point in washing it if its just going to get snowed on.

[bridgit]

21. well, i don't know from "pristine" but we washed if at a 'you wash it'...

joint just last sunday :shrug: and it still looks plenty good!! :thumbsup:

[DelawareValleyDem]

23. Inside is very neat

Outside is very dirty due to recent blizzard. Usually it is much better. I should keep my place as good as I keep my car.

24. Last night a professor asked me for a ride and I hurried to the car as...

she checked her mailbox so that I could make sure that she'd be able to sit.

[Blue Diadem]

25. you left out furry..

Ours looks like a yellow lab inside. He has to have his daily rides or he gets depressed and whines.

[Bombero1956]

26. my son was using the car

he spilled coffee on the passenger seat. His clothes and papers are in the back. The kicker is he spun the car during a snow storm and ruined the new Bassani exhaust I just bought. Right now the car will sit until spring when it'll go for a complete detailing.

27. I own a van

And it is always filled. It currently has some freecycle items I picked up, as well as things for my new business start-up. I did give it a fresh bath a couple of weeks ago, but with the fresh snow and raining since then, it's gotten just as dirty.

I could never go back to a regular car again after owning a van. There is just so much room and for a packrat like me, it's just the right vehicle. :)

[Crazy Guggenheim]

28. I have been embarrassingly lazy to clean out my car. It was spotless

a year ago and now it's pretty bad.

:popcorn:

[no name no slogan]

29. Mine is a bleeping mess

but not after this weekend-- I'll have to clean it out because my band will soon be moving into new practice space. Gotta have somewhere to pack those guitar amps and PA system...

[ET Awful]

31. Pretty clean, it needs a wash after the snow and slush, and a quick

shaking/spraying off of the all weather mats inside, but other than that, it's pretty spiffy. It better be, it's only a month and a half old :P

[Left Is Write]

32. Just now? Pretty clean. My husband cleaned out and vacuumed the interior

over the weekend and I just ran the exterior through the car wash.

It needs to be cleaned often. I travel with two little kids and a teenager. :)
