I'm pretty anal about the garbage but I'm really bad with coats. go to wotk its cold out so i wear a coat or 2, about lunch time it warms up so i take the coat off and put it in the car. when i get home from work i always forget the coat so in the morning a grab another. and the cycle begins.

i detail professionally so my vehicles are always the cleanest around. well..........ok. maybe not. my rigs are the last ones to get cleaned. with 4 kids, they get pretty messy pretty quick. then, there's the dogs. it's not so bad in the suburban since i have built in kennels, but they ride in the cab of the jeep. i will be building a kennel set up for the jeep pretty soon here so they can ride in back.

 

i will say, they get completely shampooed at least twice a year and buffed and waxed 3-4 times at a minimum. i won't take a rig on a road trip unless it's clean. the windows have to be spotless. i'm anal about that when traveling. :D

Like Giffer I find that on any given day I have at least 3 jackets behind my bench seat. I'm pretty good about taking the trash out at every stop, and running a vacuum through her once a month or so. But I'm a smoker, and you can never get all the ash out the window, so thats probably my biggest fault. Plus the blackening headliner above the drivers seat makes me wonder how my lungs are doing. :roll:

Mine is spotless. I have one CD in the CD player, my phone charger in the glovebox, and about 5 coins in the little tray. Vacuumed carpet once every other week, and nothing else anywhere. Looks like the sales brochure.

I'm looking for the gray 2 door wingback buckets (in the shape of my current seats of course) So far, no luck. Either they are the wrong color, or look like they were pulled from the bottom of a lake.

 

Thanks for the comments. :clapping:

Excellent interior. Very clean. I will keep an eye out for for grey seats.

 

Your neat and tidy interior makes me sick. The only reason my truck is clean is because I don't drive it and I removed the seat and ripped the carpet out. :yes:

My daily can get pretty bad. Normally I hit it with the vacuum when I go visit my parents. Otherwise I don't. So it can build up pretty bad. That and I have a buddy heater on the floor and a ton of broken tools that I keep meaning to take back. Generally I get in and throw everything on the passenger seat. Then I hit the brakes hard and it winds up on the floor. Then somebody needs a ride and I throw half of it behind the seat.

 

My projects, generally I keep them pretty clean, but that's because I don't drive them.

 

Oh, on my old XJ, I gave it a good douche down before I tried to sell it. I hadn't put the back seat up in about 3 months. And I had a hole in the floor. Woah was there a lot of mold under there. Never smelled it - or I would have done something about it.

I try to keep mine clean, but I like to keep some of the basic wheeling tools in the truck at all times (straps, fire extinguisher, tire deflators, air compressor soon to be replaced with CO2 tank) that makes it hard to keep it organized. I think I might organize it into some bins so it isnt just floating behind the seat though.
