How much time do you spend on your car a week?

Just curious how much time do you spend on your car a week?
An how much time do you spend on the org a day?

I spend total of 9 hours a week on my car just messing with whatever I can. Itll increase in the summer.

An I log on at least 11 times a day during school

Well I don't exactly have time or money to just run on over to the dyno every week.
Ever since then I have installed a Berk Intake & TSudo Catback; Cattman Headers; So I suspect it will rise above 221...Stop busting my *****

I wipe my car down everyday (inside and out) and also check the fluids to make sure all is in check (when applicable)... About 90 minutes per day, or about 11 hours per week.

I rarely come on here due to my busy schedule.. If anything, 2x a day on here at the most.. Many of my .Org brothers I chat with are through Facebook..

Inside AND out.. True story.. It's almost to the point to check if I have OCD..

To have nice things, you have to keep it nice..

I work at/from home so I have a bit of free time on my hands but only 30 minutes or so goes to my Maxima a day on weekdays. 1 hour on weekends. (4-8hrs weekly) It's not my DD but is garage kept so it stays clean. I check email pretty often and when I do I visit the org. Every 2-3 hours. I just stop by and scan over to see if anything interests me.


Wish they had a chat room by generation of vehicle for instant input.
