Camaro as stress relief

Anyone out there like me? Does anyone detail their car just to take their mind off of people and everyday worries? Anyone start by feeling like shit, hop in the camaro, roll the windows down or put the top down and hammer it. And when you get back home feel refreshed? Oh and recall that others who bother you dont have a car as cool as a camaro!!!

Even though I don't have Camaro anymore I still drive to relieve stress and just cruise to relax cause I love to drive. But For me I use to like to detail my car but then it just started to feel like work cause cars never stay clean for long and then its gotta wash and clean again.

You will never see a motorcycle parked in front of a psychiatrists office...lol
I have always used my bike for relaxing, but I must admit this new Camaro has rekindled my passion for driving cars.
I just hope I don't get spoiled, it's just too easy to jump in and enjoy the windshield, auto trans, heater and tunes.

Absolutely. If I have a rough spell, I'll just hop in the car and cruise. It helps so much.

And as far as detailing it, I enjoy that. Get to that point where I've run out of day light and I just sit inside and clean the interior and then I'm worn out from doing the whole thing and I just sit in the car for sometimes a couple more hours. They say that astronauts brainscans look like that of monks who have that euphoric spiritual state. I think after a day like that my brainscan would look the same.

Hmmm, need to get the annual check up done. I'll have to see if Obama care will cover the car payments if the Doc writes me a script for Camarotherapy!
If it gets turned down, there should be enough people with the same "disease" to go class action!
