Spend half as much (or even less) on your car as you did on the drive -=20
you'll get the motor drip free.  (Cheeky smile)
I've also heard that if you use it without oil, it won't drip!

Yeah, I saw that.  But my concern was if it would push the bad stuff=20
through to the bottom or bleed around the edges.  It's not a big=20
investment, so maybe I'll give it a try this year.

  They claim you can clean those - hose it off and use some detergent=20
and a brush - so wouldn't think rain would hurt it.

I''m a little concerned about what would happen in the rain.


Any thoughts? Better suggestions are always welcome.
