Confession: sometimes I feel guilty driving my camaro

It has 6,600 miles on it and since that's low mileage for a 2010, sometimes I feel guilty driving her. It's a sickness I tell you.

Whether you drive it or not, it is worth less today than it was yesterday ... May as well drive it and enjoy it yourself, rather than saving it for someone else.

Right - I know. A quote I recently heard: Not driving your [camaro] is like not having sex with your girlfriend so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

Except the car doesn't have "needs" and won't leave you if you stop driving it.

Enjoy it, you only live once and can't take money with you. I don't drive my car much because I'm not home much. But, when I'm home on nice days I drive the car almost everywhere. Granted I'm always scared parking it because people are pricks.

Dude it's just a car, drive it or you might not get a chance the next day. We were not built to last forever.

Exactly. Been figuring this out over the past few years. How much time, it's never written.

You think you have forever, then you don't even get to say goodbye.

Drive the car. Money, cannot take it with you.

Enjoy the hell out of that thing man! It was made to be driven! My 2010 has 27,000 on it and it would probably have a lot more if I wasn't gone for half the year! lol.
