I have 1 picnic foldup chair
25 lolly wrappers,
overflowing ashtray
empty coke bottle
3 drinking straws
2 old newspapers
2 spiders in their webs
12 little rocks
2 empty plastic shopping bags
14 shop dockets
picnic blanket
2 yakult yoghurt drink bottles
and thats in the passenger area, i wont start on the boot or in the glove compartments.
Does this prove that im a bycaholic or just plain slack!!!

As usual I did not get the memo that says we are spose to clean our cars, I thought that is why you allow passengers so they will clean enough that they can get in. You dont even want to know about my Pickup, its bad enough that DW will not go anywhere in it without bringing a trash bag, you have to be quick to get in before too much falls out(passenger side only my side is clean.
 
I keep my suv spotless too it drives me crazy if I see a piece of paper or bottle cap the kids left. Only thing I have in the back behind the 3rd seat and it's in a crate is the air compress, gloves, tie down strap, towel, map, plastic square sheet from home depot for when I get plants or something dirty can't have my carpet messed up! I don't count the stuff in the glove box I do keep scissors, screw drive, pen & pad of paper. brush & a hair tie. Then the papers for insurance that's it.

My mom has been driving it for a couple months because her truck broke down. It's killing me because she has magazines and a bunch of other stuff that would never be in it if I was driving it!! Oh and I take it through the car wash every other week. I love my SUV!!
 
Mine has a years worth of national geographic (never know when you can get an article in...) a scraper for the ice about to come an extra coat & a blanket. In the trunk I have a chair, fishing pole, tackle box, jumper cables & a battery charger. And if I was to be completely honest a ton of hair EVERYWHERE. And no I do not have a dog to blame it on....

lets see....I know there is an emergency kit in there....somewhere. Complete with candles and waterproof matches. ( My Alaskan skills still show through) I have 2 blankets, flashlight, a hand towel...in case I have to lift the hood and get my hands dirty. LOL I know there are countless feed store reciepts...Oh, I saw a few feathers in there the other day..lots of gravel and dirt on the carpet...im sure there are a few of my kitchen coffee cups in there...I am missing a few. Oh, some bank money holders...from getting money out of the bank, for chicken feed of course..and a few pieces of straw...some wood chips( bark) from hauling wood...Ohhhh the possibilities! DH washed and waxed ot for me the other day...guess I better get out there and clean the inside!

a bag of chicken feed.

well that wraps up my car. It loks like a long list but since we drive a huge Suv, and the organizers I made the only part of it that is stuffed really is the back of it. Well and the back seats. My DH hasnt unloaded his college books since he has one more class before he gets the week off and doesnt want to pack them all in yet. And my duaghters books which is making me mad because we went out to the Doctor today and since she is home schooled she brought her school work with her. As soon as we got home she has been out playing around the neighbor hood and is not planning on getting back to get the books out and finish until it is absolutely dark, when I want to relax and wind down. Oh and so no one flips out we have a liscene to carry a conciled weapon. He has been working part time doing sucterity work.
 
console:
Jolly ranchers
binoculars
cigs
pistol

OK just o ask about that "pistol"

and my list was long till saw this one on yours.

Mine has a box knife and a flash light, among things like a loose egg.
