Ok, silly question maybe, but with my last car I didn't really mind much because I was able to shower at the gym before I drove back, but in my new apartment, the building is close to my apartment so I will need to drive there and then drive back (or just run there if it isn't too cold).

For those of you who drive to the gym and drive back before showering, do you do anything special to prevent the car/seat from smelling sweaty. Maybe drop a towel over the seat before getting in?

 

I've never worried about it too much. Do you have leather seats? Just wipe it down every once in a while.

I have cloth so thats why i was a bit worried

Thats just disgusting lol

 

Just shower at the gym!

 

I keep a towel (to sit on) in the trunk as well as a warmup jacket to put on.

 

If you sweat a lot the sweat will just soak right through the towel. I have to drive quite a bit after working out in my STi which has cloth seats and what I do is get a large roll of the plastic stuff you use when painting rooms. If you cut off a section that is approximately as wide as the seat it will be just a bit longer than from the head to the bottom of the seat area. After you put down this plastic strip put a towel on top for maximum stink prevention. This stuff will last a REALLY long time using it like this since you are only cutting off a little at a time.

 

Just change your shirt.. I have "work out clothes" and I only wear them when I'm working out. Then I change back to the clothes I wore to drive back.. No big deal

 

Shower at the Gym or cool off or towel

 

put a towel on the seat.

 

lol i hear ya man. I always feel bad for the car once I get in it. I just let the air freshener do its job.

 

Shower at gym, or change shirt - towels are not really worth it...it will still soak into the seat.

Honestly, I'd run to and from - no matter how cold it is a good run is a nice way to cool down.

 

True very true. Then again maybe I can convince the gf to drive me in her car.... "Honey, do you mind driving me to the gym, maybe we can work out together too.... no no im not saying you need to wor- ... no you arent fa- .... what do you mean im an... no i just mean that since you are drivin-"

ok nix that idea.

 

LOL, I bought my wife a dog, a dog that needs to be run or will eat my house (wife wanted a doberman).

LOL - your choice dear, run the puppy or say bye bye to everything you own....

 

You open the windows when you fart, no difference.

 

Done this many times, never had a smelly car.


Mine used to be leather however.....

 

I would NEVER fart in my 8. How could you

 

Same here, unless I have a severe need to for sanity sake, but in that case you do the ol' lift, rip, waft, sit

 

^ LOL yup. This reminds me a few days ago i had to pretty bad but held it in till i got home lmao
