What have you learned about your Camaro

[firedrop]

i learned that the windshields and paint chips and cracks just by looking at it wrong.

I learned that when your battery is about to go dead or is almost dead, that the computer in the car finds the light in your car that draws the least amount of voltage and makes it blink.Then after you reinstall a new one you lose your programimg for the indexing of the windows.So if dont know how to reprogram you cant shut the door or the window could break.Key in on position windows down then up and hold switch for 3seconds done reprogramed.

I've learned that the closer you look at your car, the more you see that needs cleaned. I've always been kind of a clean freak, but this is almost an obsession. I realized that when I didn't go to the store the other day, because it looked like rain. I've also pulled over to the side of the road, to clean bugs off the windshield. And if I see another streak on my glass, I'm gonna lose it! LOL

Seriously, I have to have it perfect, all the time. I've never been this way with a car before. Close, but not like this. Not a complaint, just an observation. It'd be great to hear a few, "Yeah, that's me too"... Otherwise, counseling may be in order...

You aren't kidding! I don't even have 7000 miles yet and I already need a third windshield.

When in the drive through. A bucket of KFC does not go through window with ease.

I didnt even think about that. That could be a huge issue.

canecors069. i am a little OCD about my cars too, but also my house, etc. i am a neat freak i guess. i do clean bugs off that nite so they are not "caked" on by the son after several days. i wash my car (daily driver 98 Firebird) every weekend. i will wash it on my driveway in winter, if above 40 even. its looks like the day when i bought it in 98. when you pay major bucks for something, you take care of it. maybe its ocd, dont know. but i take pride in what my cars look like. i treat my boat and house the same way, vacume house, keep yard manicured, etc. at least i am consistant accross the board. i think us guys are more obsessed about our cars than women. women i know wash their cars once a year, vacume them once a year and probaly chnge oil about the same interval!! ha ha
