I'm over it
#22
I have a black HHR I traded my blue z71 Tahoe for. Sure, it shows the dirt but if it does, it's because it's doing what I need it to do. Get me to my destination so I can ride or swim
A little dirt or a lot, just means you getting value from your ride rather than the paint job

I love my HHR, but I have to let this go.
I got the car with the intent of hauling my mountain bikes. It does that very well. But in order to get to ANY trails here in ND, I have to drive on dirt and or gravel roads. The first dozen or so times I took the car to trails I immediately washed the car as soon as I got back. I'm over that. I have become resigned to the fact that if I use this car for the purpose for which I intended to use it when I made the purchase, it will get dirty. If it has to go a week with dust on the tailgate, so be it.
Some of you may look at my car and think that I don't care about it. I do, I just can't keep washing it multiple times a week. Heck, winter is coming in ND soon, and I won't be able to wash it anywhere outside of a car wash before long anyway.

Drive from the INSIDE out not the OUTSIDE in. You don't have to live for the thousands of people you don't know who see your dirty car. What cares.
The car is a means to an end not the END in and of itself.
