    Default How do you keep your vehicle?

    How do you keep your vehicle? Is it nice and tidy or does it look like you live in it?

    Mine is nice and tidy. I have a couple friends that have cars that are full of clutter. If more than one person rides with them they have to move stuff over before anyone can get in. Why would anyone need to keep 3-4 jackets in them or 2-3 boxes of tissues in them? I know one gal that even carries a litter box on her backseat floor in case her cat decides to ride with her. LOL

    You need to fire your personal driver.

    Mine is clean. I can't stand a trashy car. Now it does need the windows cleaned from the inside and the dash needs wiped down. It gets lots of dust from my place of employment.

    It's messy if the kids and I were in it last. Dh keeps the car he usually drives neat and tidy. He'll vacuum and clean out our van on the weekend if it's too messy for his taste.

    That's our car. I don't need 3-4 jackets and boxes of tissues in it, they just get left there.

    Our car is a mess from October until April, then sporadically cleaned during the summer. Why? I absolutely HATE the cold. I grab what I can carry and run from the car to the house, anything that is left behind stays out there until spring.

    me too. all the lessons from 1st semester are still riding inb the back. i keep the front seat area uncluttered and clean.
    11% gross to retirement
    10% takehome to tithe and offerings
    emergency fund maintained at 3000(works for me)
    credit card debt 7500
    mortgage free
    freedom accounts/sinking funds that ebb and flow
    then live on the rest!

    i am trying something new. LDS church advises savings or debt repayment should be the same as the tithe. 10% each.

    I try to be good. I have to keep on the kids to take things back into the house with them when we get home, or the leave tons of stuff in there.

    All I keep in the cargo space is my gym bag, gloves and a hat in the winter and my reusable grocery bags. Oh, and my sunglasses stay in the front. But other than that, I try to take everything inside with me when I get home!

    Clean...very clean. All that's in it is my reusable grocery bags, behind the front seat. I'm super picky about my car!

    Mine is a little cluttered now, it always gets this way at the end of the winter. As soon as the weather is nice I'll give it a good clean out.
