If you ______________, you might be a car guy

I thought it might be fun to start a thread about what makes a car guy.


While channeling your inner Foxworthy, fill in the blank:

If you _________________, you might be a car guy.



I'll start:

If you wash your car before you mow your overgrown lawn, you might be a car guy.

Go!

If you have a transmission in your bathtub.

Oh wait, that's a Redneck.

If you buy car parts even though you may not go back to work until February of 2021...

If you demand people to close your exterior doors with only a finger on the weatherstrip, you might be a car guy.

If you have permanent oil, rubber or rust stains on your garage and/or driveway floor, you might be a car guy

If you have ever found yourself eating ramen to be able to afford car parts, you might be a car guy

If you have more pics of your car on your phone than your spouse/SO, you might be a car guy

If you have teetering stacks of unread car club magazines that you refuse to throw out because “you’ll get around to reading them”, you might be a car guy

If you’ve ever nearly killed yourself trying to get a pic of a cool car driving down the road, you might be a car guy

If you and your friends regularly include quotes from the Fast and the Furious in your everyday conversations, you might be a car guy

If you tell that blonde 34DD bombshell to move because she's blocking the perfect angle for your photograph of your 911, you might be a car guy.

You'll race someone, regardless.

- 8am on a Monday on your way into the office? Sure why not?
- On an important phone call? Fuck it.
- With wife on way to doctor? Let's run it.

If you love the smell of burning rubber in the garage after you park your car...

If you haven't listened to your radio in weeks because you prefer listening to your exhaust...

If your friends come to you for all tire advice...

If you don't blink at paying $15 per gallon for 110 octane racing fuel...

You can determine make and model from 500 yds +.
