That’s an American problem apparently.
And while materialism may have a lot to do with that, I think there’s a car related aspect, too.
We no longer love our cars, do our own work on our cars.
When I was a kid, we had a two car garage.
And the garage was used by the family gearheads to work on the cars we parked in the garage.
Those were the days.
Well, if I have to I can move stuff around and get one car in there. It’s true, though, about all I do on my own cars now is change the oil, and I’d rather do that out in the dirt anyway because of the inevitable drips.
I’m thinking about getting a shipping container for storage and building a canopy alongside to park under. The sun doesn’t do a car’s paint much good after a few years, plus we can get some fair-sized hail from summer thunderstorms. Better if I could park under some sort of cover.
