With that said, i just put gas in my car this past Friday, the last time i put gas in it? September 4th 2019. I have to keep a trickle charge on my car.

I keep the car around because well i have kids, and they are 6, and 7. But only use it when i have to or the need warrants it. (Wife had to go to ER once for serious asthma attack). The car does come handy. But going to dinner with in 8 miles ? Heck whole family saddles up and rides to dinner. If I’m paying, they have to work for it if they want the treat of eating out
