Trade In on Gardeners Car

[Nyboy]

last week My car went in for serving, a few things where pointed out to me. I passed by a Honda lot and decided to look at cars. Before I knew what happened, I was sitting at a desk talking numbers. I had no idea I was going to purchase a car that day so did no cleaning on my car. When the question of how much for my car as a trade in came up, salesman asked me for my keys. When he came back he had 1 question why so much dirt and leaves. Hoping pick up ready soon so willn't have that problem them.

Well, I hope you proudly told him you are a gardener!

 

[Nyboy]

Yes and now I am afraid to buy any plants, car to clean for dirt spills

NyBoy, DW and I were both trying to get the mud out of the cab when we took the pickup to the grocery store this morning.

Several days standing in the dirt and working with a shovel, I just hope my garden shoes, which weren't my "garden shoes" last month, at least get me started in 2016!

2016! I wonder how many pairs of my shoes have graduated to garden work and then to the trash ..?

Well, so what did you get?
You know they say it doesn't make any difference at all on the trade in if you detail your car to the enth degree or not. So your car was fine with the compost pile in the back seat.

I have hauled feed, hay, horse poop and all sorts of things in my cars. Have a real nice car now and only abuse it in the form of feed in the trunk.

You all need to get a Honda Element, its got a plasticy inside you can spray out with a hose. Looooooooove mine! Only problem is they don't make them anymore.

I had a 2003 Ford Focus wagon that I crammed 500 pounds of horse feed in, tied 3 bales of hay on top and went to feed the horses. I abused that poor car so bad, finally totaled it on 610 Loop Freeway in Houston. Next car was a Dodge Calibur. It was cheap, had power windows, radio and CD, cheap, AC, roomy inside, did I mention cheap? I could get 1,000 pounds of horse feed in it in #50 sacks. I hauled hay in it, made a horrible mess. The people at the feed store thought I was crazy. DH has a 2004 Ford F250 Diesel. I almost never used it to go get feed......

I haul straw in the trunk of my Camry, but I don't like to. Makes a terrible mess.
