If you’re really a minimalist, you don’t own a car

[JeremyNT]

And if you're only kind of a minimalist, who does own a car, you don't wash it.

[radlad]

I don't know... wouldn't a minimalist want to prolong the lifetime of their fewer possessions?

[sfpotter]

Do clean cars last longer than dirty cars?

[radlad]

outside of nyc, this is going to have a major impact on quality of life. don't let perfection be the enemy of good.
