Is your Z a burden to you?

My only burden is that I get overly protective of my Z.

Same. Cats have been sleeping on my car. They made a few scratch mark on the hood already so I'm trying to find methods to scare them away lol.

And I always parky my car at an empty parking lot by myself so I wouldn't get door dings. Even it means that I have to walk an extra block to where I'm going. Door dings are ugly

The answer you wanted to hear.

Yes it is a burden.
I cant afford my car payment.
My insurance company won't insure me.
I have to put in premium gas.
I have to park in Budapest to prevent door dings.
I have to wash it.
It is black and the Texas heat is horrible.
I had to spend a small fortune on tires.
I have to get out to open the back hatch....what's up with that.
Driving a standard in traffic for my 4 mile trek to work is absolutely grueling.
I feel as though I am being watched.
And to top it all off I found raccoon prints on my hood.

Just trying to fill the void of JungleZ. This would be the perfect thread for him.

Scatter fresh orange and lemon peels or spray with citrus-scented fragrances. Coffee grounds, vinegar, pipe tobacco, or oil of lavender, lemongrass, citronella, or eucalyptus also deter cats.

Or get a dog.

Thanks.

The storm scared the cats away since yesterday. I'm safe for another day or two

If anyone's finding their Z just too burdensome, I'll take it off your hands for free. I could use a parts spare

That's ME! My wife has gotten accustomed to Z parking behavior. He does NOT go to Wallyworld unless it's a outright emergency.
