I saw someone driving a Black or Blue SVT down I-91 sunday...normally I would have been happy to see one but this time was different. Car looked like it hadn't been washed in about a year, running on some beat up old rims (looked like 4 spares!), just looked like s**t.
Almost brought a tear to my eye.... frown

Hey it's winter. I have 4 ugly rims and my SVT looks like s***. But I still love her. She will get a good puff + buff in the spring. She takes me 100 miles a day so she is bound to get a little
dirty.

My black SVT looks like complete crap about 85% of the time from November-March. It's just too hard to keep it clean while driving several hundred miles per week. frown

This is quite possibly the last black car I will ever buy.

Ummmm....that was me.... frown Believe me when I tell you that that car is ALWAYS immaculate, but I just haven't gotten around to washing it....getting out to job interviews and carting my son around are a little higher on my priority list at this time. Hey, at least the interior's clean wink

Sorry J, not trying to be rude....I'm just having a hard time holding onto that car(almost immpossible to do with no job), so I'm lucky I have it at all.....I live in Longmeadow, but my girlfriend still lives in our old aprtment in Chicopee. What time did you see me at?? Next time wave or flash your lights at me or something....Always looking for fellow CEGer's in the area!!! You should head up to Southampton on Weds. once the weather's nicer-I have my SVT in the "show club" there.....Welcome!! smile

I hear ya...

I just came from Boston protesting Layoffs in my department...might be a time soon when keeping my car clean is the very LEAST of my worries. I wasn't trying to knock anyone either. I'm up and down 91 and the Pike all the time so don't be surprised if ya get a flash(headlights) and a wave from a silver SE laugh
