Do you let people eat/drink in your car?

[destrekor]

right now sure, as long as they aren't slobs. if/when i get a new(er) car, then i may have to change the rules around a little bit

Same. My 97 Dakota has seen quite a lot. And I am not going to be a dick about things inside the truck when the outside has paint chipping around the bed and rust on the rear bumper.
The inside of my vehicle has seen quite a bit of misfortune. I'll take it to a full service car wash from time to time, or to one of those "do it yourself" places complete with vacuums. Clean it up a bit and spruce up the inside, quite effectively too.

The moment I get a newer model vehicle, I'll baby it and the rules will change inside.
Until, of course, I screw up, or it's been long enough that I don't care anymore.

I'm ok with road head in the car if she swallows. Don't want to have to wash spunk out of the seats.

 

[wiredspider]

I have an older car, so I guess I wouldn't mind.

 

[Dari]

Never. I bought that car brand new 4 years ago and no one, not even me, is allowed to eat in my car. I even ask that they take off their coat and put it on the floor. I also never open the windows.

 

[Corporate Thug]

people eat, drink, and occasionally smoke in my car. I don't care.

 

[soydios]

depends who they are and what the food/drink is

same. but usually no.
also, ttnmp

Only water is fine.

I also ban people with herpes. I am dead serious. (long story short, a friend had a girlfriend with an open sore on her mouth, she admitted it was herpes, I told her to take the train.)

eating is cool unless it's bbq ribs or something messy

Shen! Not that the girl didn't have herpes but, that you have friends.

I don't care. A car to me is a tool, just like a hammer is, and I don't baby it in any way. Scratches, dents, stains... Who cares? The scrap yard isn't particular when the car finally makes it to them ;^)

There's a reason why my car still has that new car leather seat smell. I don't let people eat in my car. It's a sure fire way to make your car stink and to get stains. Water or drinks with lids are ok.

I like old car smell better. Rotten vinyl, gas, and oil... There's nothing better :^)

 

[n7]

I don't own a car... costs too much

 

[l0cke]

When I bought my car I spent like 5 days straight getting coffee stains out. Also there are no cupholders so drinks will always go badly. I allow water though.

I'm usually fine with eating as long as it is not breadcrumbs or a sandwich with 5 gallons of mayo.

I have no problem with mud or dirt though.

 

[anxi80]

no. well technically thats not true; ill allow water in my car. everything else is closed up until we get to our destination. my car is 4 years old and still has that new leather smell in it so food/drinks is a big no-no. if they raise a fuss, i tell them tough and if they dont like it next time they can drive. my old car got beat to shit inside because i let up, so i dont plan to let the same thing happen this time around.

 

[Lola]

not a big deal to me. Leather wipes off well.

 

[Turbonium]

I do not like people eating/drinking in my car, but how do you just come out and say it without sounding like a pretentious biotch?

Just frankly tell them up front about it. It's your car, not theirs. If they don't respect you enough to follow that rule, you probably need new friends.

 

[FoBoT]

sure, no problem
just don't leave trash afterwards

 

[JulesMaximus]

Rarely...but I'm not anal about it. Depends on the food, generally, we do not eat meals in my car but some snacks are okay.

 

[Heller]

you can smoke eat and drink in the car, just don't leave me your mess.

 

[clamum]

Yes I let them eat/drink, I don't care. No one makes a mess anyway.

 

[BrownTown]

A car is just a tool to get from A to B for me so I don't really care what it looks like inside or out so I don't really care if it gets a little dirty. There actually aren't too many staisn inside right now, but there are quite a few crumbs on the fllor (although I'm sure a vacuum could handle them pretty quick) It is my intention to drive my car until it bites the dust, so resale value isn't really an issue either.

 

[theprodigalrebel]

Eat, sleep, drink, smoke, bang - it's all good.

 

[chr6]

don't mind at all if people eat or drink in the car, but no smoking, and if they spill/make a mess, just clean it up.

 

[ScottyB]

I didn't realize there were many people that this would annoy. Of course I wouldn't care. And I probably wouldn't be friends with someone who did care.
