With the modern on-the-go lifestyle some people use their cars as their spare closet throwing everything in the back seat forgetting about it until the next spring cleaning or a potential of a female being in the car. On the other end of the spectrum many are so anal about their car they get upset if there is _any_ foreign object in the car that it didn’t roll off with from the showroom floor. Other performance oriented gear heads chose to remove all of that plus extra necessities in order to further reduce the weight of the vehicle by removing such things as spare tire and tool sets, so they would be stranded if a 10mm bolt on their alternator wire came lose. With that said, other then the required registration and insurance cards… What’s in your car? - Paper towels for the occasions when gravity wins against my morning coffee - Air freshener because you never know - Motorcycle jacket and helmet - who knew if you get pulled over in a car wearing a helmet the cop will laugh it off? - Detailing supplies collecting dust - Pens/pencils - Paintball gun - Random car magazines for long highway stretches :ninja - A 48 pill pack of NoDoz - Random cooking supplies in the trunk ---

In the summer I like to keep it as clean as I can… In the winter it’s like my second home. :lol As of right now: - Beach towel for the backseat when the puppies ride along (in the trunk) - A collaboration of three different brands of coconut air freshener (glovebox) - Pen and a note pad (passenger door pocket) - Various Eurotuner, and other car magazines (pocket behind driver seat) - A hoodie and a jacket (thrown around the back seat) - CD’s like crazy (driver side door pocket) - Radar detector - The “official” touchfree wash credit card - Cell phone charger I’m sure more random junk, for the most part I think that’s about it… ---

I clean out my interior about every two weeks All I have in the trunk are the T-Top bags. I took out the spare because a 16" spare doesn’t mean shit when you’re rolling on 18"s. Besides, thats what AAA is for. Up front neatly stacked in the center console is the DVD remote, about 5 CD’s and a pen. ---

In the back seat there is at least 1 fire extinguisher and the spilled contents of my toolbox, and spare solenoids and ball joints. Just in case. ---
