You know you’re an AutoGeek when….
1. PB means Poorboys not peanut butter
2. PC means Porter Cable not personal computer
3. DD means daily driver and not a woman’s bra size ;)
4. GQ means garage queen not gentlemen’s quarterly magazine
5. (for us locals) you are willing to drive an hour or two to get your favorite AG products.
6. You make pre-schoolers take their shoes off immediately upon entering your car.
7. You have more pictures of cars than your kids stored in your digital camera.
8. You size up and mentally detail the cars you see on the road and in parking lots.
9. You use AT LEAST 3 products for every part of your car.
10. You will let your kids starve a little bit until you can find to a McDonalds rather than let them eat or drink in the car.
11. You purposely park in the farthest away parking spot possible.
12. The money that you spend in a year on your car is more than the gross national product of a small country.
13. Door dings are a justified reason for clinical depression.
14. Spending 10 hours over a weekend detailing your car not only is fun for you, you can’t wait to get started.
15. You case your neighborhood for shady spots.
16. You never, ever park under a tree.
17. You carry a detail kit in your car trunk "in case of an emergency".
18. You dream about cars almost every night.
19. After detailing, your car smells like a fruit salad. :)
20. You use 3 or more buckets to wash the car.
21. You use your car's leather cleaner and conditioner on your shoes.


These are just a few of my observations, please feel free to add your own to the list. And lastly... If knowledge is power then Killrwheels is Superman. ;)
Cheers! :cheers:
 
#20 When driving down the highway you check the side panels on cars going by for gloss

12, 6, and 18 are the only three that I don't meet quite yet. 7, 8, and 14 scare me because those aren't just true but they are also part of my religious beliefs. lol

Now I'm really scared. I NEED HELP!!! I drove to FL from NC recently with a bottle of Pinnacle Crystal Mist and a cloth at my feet. EVERY stop meant cleaning the bugs off the front and mirrors. I didn't even think this might be abnormal. Now I'm thinking about what else I do on the list. Oy, my head hurts!

Nah ... you would only need help if you had the lid open and were sniffing it between stops for bugs

5. I think the AG staff is getting sick of seeing me every couple of days!
6. I hardly ever carry passengers, but i drive with my shoes off.
7. I'm guilty of this one BIG TIME. there have only been about 15 pictures taken on my camera that weren't of a car (be it my own, friends, etc)
8. Guilty of this one too... especially when I look at other tC's
9. 3? wash/clay/XMT#2/XMT CFG/DP Max Wax. that looks like 5 products i used on megahn's paint!
11. oh hell ya. good way to be somewhat active too!
13. yes it is because I #11
14. to a degree... i hate polishing. everything else is peachy though :D
16. yep
17. 2 paintworthy MF's, 2 non-paintworthy MF's, CK quikshine, interior wipedown cloth, and some meg's quick interior detailer wipes!

That's why I put "at least" I was thinking about all the different parts of the car. :)

8. I've noticed I do this ALL the time. I'm always commenting on how good/bad people's cars on the road are.

Not sure what number this is up to but i want to add one !

When sitting on the toilet, I notice that the toilet seat has swirls. And other places around the house like kitchen table and benches. In my head i'm thinking it could do with some SSR2.5.
 
There is nothing wrong with this sickness. People around us have to learn to live with it.
