There are a lot of small things I don't like that involve treating my property with disrespect. The only thing that 'really' bothers me, to the point of getting my blood to boiling, is to find someone leaning against my perfectly detailed vehicle. It should be obvious, to any idiot, that I take care of my vehicle and probably don't want scratches all over it. Regardless, I don't react well to it.

It's actually come to blows before. Not because of the leaning, but because of the reaction of said person to being asked not lean on my vehicle. Sometimes, I don't ask too nicely, I guess. So far noone has done it more than once.

"Don't slam the door biatch!
How many times I gotta tell you?"

That &

When my wife leans back in the seat like it's a lazyboy, extending her sock feet on the dash and smudging my windows with little toe marks.

Makes me so mad I could crush a grape.

getting back to point number 2:

After she leaves her smudgy toe marks on the glass, she'll be riding in my truck a week later, forget she did it, and then accuse me of having some dirty ho in the passenger seat,

"Where did those foot marks come from? looks like little feet? Are you cheating on me again?"

Ahh the pain, lol

WINDOW CHALK, even after i pressure wash it i find dots of blue or white on my paint. i know it doesnt hurt the glass or paint, but it pisses me off big time. bgs on stuck on windshield even when you have a bug deflector. check engine lights that dont go off no matter what you do to fix it.

I "WASH" my Jeep... How silly... Sometimes, when the desert pinstriping gets bad enough, I even buff it out.

I have to have the cig lighter straight accross, the windows all have to be level, no one touchs my radio or AC, I use my lunch break at work to clean the interior and windows with my int/wind. wipes in my arm rest.
I figure my MPG every fillup.
