Which is better for a car? 850

posted by  someone claiming to be Rene on  Mon Mar 4 06:38 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Dear friend,

You should have someone, like your parents, to drive the car maybe a little more than a few miles per month. Some of the most important issues to avoid are related to tires, hoses, belt, water pump, battery, and maybe more important, gasoline. Gasoline starts to heavily degrade and oxidize in about 3 month for regular, and 6 month for premium as stated in a boat asociation I belong.

So as mentioned before, allow your parents to drive it for a little bit, but UNDER YOUR STRICT SUPERVISION. You know how they are, you give them an inch, and they'll take a whole yard.

Good luck!!!

P.S. My 3 year old keeps asking me for the car keys...
