    Is this guy a true Marauder Lover ?

    I got off work lastnight. I work in downtown DC, I was over by the Washington Monument when i saw a marauder coming up on my left. We stopped at the light, my friend said, oh my god look at his marauder. I turned my head and what did i c ? This guy marauder was dirty hell. I mean dirty. Rims, wheels the hole car. He look like he went off roading in his marauder. I put my windows down so did he, guest what he said 2 me ? I LOVE MY MARAUDER. I looked at my friend and she said u better not, i said that, u don't love ur Marauder that much, look how dirty she is, what a disgrace. I put my window up light turned green and i took off. Now u tell me, do u think he think he loves his marauder ? I say hell no !

    I say you were an *******.

    He loves his car so much that he DRIVES it. He was being polite enough to recognize that you have a Marauder.

    Who knows what he had just been through? Long day, up at 4 am, travelling dirt roads making calls. God knows what his story was. I don't think that this was the best possible way to acknowledge a fellow owner. I've had days when I woke up to my shiny, freshly washed MM and had to go straight to a jobsite - mud, dirt, whatever. It makes me cry to know I have to go home and wash it all over again, and somedays I'm too depressed to do it. It happens. When I'm having one of those downer, long old work days, I really hope I don't get greated by someone like you. No offence to you directly as I'm sure your a decent guy. A comment like that simply wouldn't improve my day any.

    I am sure that there are plenty days where you might catch my Marauder in less than Car Show shape. Give the guy a break.

    Gonna have to agree with these last few posts. I love my MM to death, and every scratch I keep finding is like a dagger in the back, and the dirt it finds so easily is nothing less than frustrating. Sometimes life doesn't give you enough free moments to baby your MM the way it deserves to be. Lord knows I love to hand wash mine, and I just can't find the time these days.

    I totally dislike driving mine when it is dirty, but I guess that still beats the heck out of the alternative. I bought mine to drive and enjoy.

    The street I live on at one time was a dirt road. I had a black '98 Camaro SS. I could spend all morning washing my car, only to drive from my house a few blocks to a paved road, and it would immediately look like crap.

    I guess like some have said, the guy was friendly and acknowledged another Marauder, but who knows what his circumstances were.

    He could be heading home after just completing the Baja 1000.

    Cheers!

    My BLUE is dirty 6 out of the 7 days in a week.
    The smile I get from enjoying it far outweighs its cleanliness.

    Half the time both of mine are dirty and we still drive them. It's only when I have the time do they get TLC and had-washed by me. Else, they sit dirty -- no car washes for my babies.

    My wifes DTR is dirty 75% of the time. The interior is spotless but since she drives 50 miles to work and 50 miles back it gets a bit dirty during the week. My MM is dirty roughly 50% of the time, usually whenever I am going to meet up with other MM owners.

    I agree with the others, just becuase he has a dirty car doesn't mean he doesn't love it. My wife refuses to drive anything else, and the only other car I like to drive is my Crown Vic Squad car at work.

    Give the guy a break.
