Fucking electrical leakage keeps draining the battery. Which requires manual charging, or to drive it, which requires fuel. Not to mention keeping the weather out, critters out, sunlight etc. I just want to park it for half or whole year without fucking driving it or refueling or charging it every week!
Also the thousand other consumerist techno gadgets around us trapping people into an endless cycle of toiling with out dated, unnecessary objects that slowly drains ones lifeforce away, to enrich the techno vampires sat within their fortified castle chateaus. We are all taking but a brief rest at a shady tree inside the vampires dark endless labyrinth.

Don't forget the hundreds of dollars per year you have to spend on insurance just to keep it road legal. And even if you never drive it, time is ticking on the lifespan of its consumable parts and fluids. It's astonishing how much of a burden they are and yet American society revolves around its ownership.
how it started: sturdy economic 90s car 😄
how its going: you've taken everything from me 😔
Nope, just wear and tear has made the door seals leak and the electricals slowly breaking one thing after another. Its still a solid set of wheels tho. And yea city parking yikes.
Please XI, genocide the rural american life and relocate me to the city.
Maintaining a car is way more expensive than people think about, and its kinda wild that a country based 150% on automobiles doesnt teach anyone anything about that
For this specific issue you can get a top post switch, which is basically a battery terminal w/ a knife switch that lets you disconnect the battery if its gonna sit for a while. Theyre pretty cheap and easy to install
Also, fluids degrade, rubber dry rots, engine seals break down, etc. When you're bought into a car, you're locked in even if you never drive it.
