    People who think it's okay to cross their legs in the front seat. Excuse me, but your foot doesn't need to be ridin' on my dashboard. Can you not sit correctly for the short time it will take us to get somewhere???

    My biggest pet peeve: Eating in the car. You do not need to open up the drive thru bag and start eating french fries, spilling the salt and whatever else all over my floor. And THEN, to top it off, they brush off their fingers on their pant leg while sitting in the seat still. Argh! You know why my car smells like new? Because there is no rotting food in the carpet.

    Trust me, it makes a big difference.
     
  3. I suppose my all time worst would be if you and a someone had been out drinking and they vomit in your car :scared:

    That is a definete deal killer for my freindship :peace:

    Silent farts. No one claims it and they dont pipe up to roll the windows down, and then even if you do roll them down, its in the fabric and it festers. That and when people just generally leave trash. Or when you are parked next to a curb and you ask them to open the door slowly and they fling it open, I am just waiting for a curb to dominate the bottom half of my passenger side doors.

    I have a friend who leans on my car a lot if we're chillen somewhere. I always tell him not to but he insists he's not scratching with his jeans or anything because he's not sliding around.

    He's a good friend but doesn't have respect for my car's paint.

    I punch my friends if they put shit on my car or lean on it. My one friend has a gay carabiner with his keys on his belt loop. I always make sure I take his keys off him before we get in my car...he always says I'm too picky but I'm just protecting my damn leather!

    This too. I was driving one of my friends home, she went to put her leg on the dash, glanced at me and saw my expression, and put it back down again.

    Things I don't mind a WHOLE lot are things easily cleaned up, like finger prints on glass. But I can't stand it when people draw in the dirt on my car. They say it doesn't really scratch it and I'm too picky. Then I whip out my QD and a MF (which I keep in my car at all times), and show them what they just did. Also, I deliver pizza and none of us drivers use the "car toppers" except one. He knows how picky I am about scratching my car, and at the end of every shift before he leaves, he sticks it on my trunk, leaving four round scratch marks...... My paint is already covered in paint chips, swirl marks, and scratches from the previous owners (and it is 17 years old...), but I try to take care of what I have left :)

    Slamming doors is the worst of all. Our BMW X5's doors are heavy, but the window regulators in them are weak! Every time somebody slams the heavy door closed, I shudder as I hear the window rattle a little. One day a window will just drop down when the door gets slammed.

    Yeah, man thats the hard part. They have no clue (think you're crazy)

    I'm right there with you!

    Definetly makes a difference. Everybody knows that wont fly in my Sky :) In fact I'm a little over the top. I will barely ever even pick up drive through food in my Sky unless the top is down. Don't want any of those errant food fumes making friends with my interior!
