Who Talks To Their Car?
Man up. At least some of us do it. Who baby talks their car when driving alone? (or maybe with others. lol) You know what I'm talking about... words of encouragement, a gentle pat on the steering wheel after a nice turbo burn, a "have a nice night" as you head into the house after work... admit it!
Who does it? And what do you say? hahahaha |

i do...
no baby talk tho. i either talk to it like i would a dog or a gf, depending on my mood. i.e. 'who's a good girl?' after some extreme driving, or 'hey sexy' after a day pampering her. yea, i've got issues... |

Haven't picked up the 135 yet, but with my Audi I've done both the "good job" after a good run and the "you rotten sack of sh!t" when a bolt/wheel/anything won't come off.
Sometimes I bust out the German too...maybe hoping she'll understand it better?

Just a simple "Morning Girl" when I get in ... it's a bad habit I picked up from an ad on TV in New Zealand 20 years ago, a Farmer would always say "Morning Girls" to his cows in the morning, and they would all chime back "Morning Murray", unfortunately the car's never said "Morning" back to me.

when I shift bad (you know the crunching sound) I have to apologize or else the car hates me.
