I am one of those guys. To me, I dont drive it in the rain, I get it off the road before any salt/chemicals are thrown down on the roads, i dont bring it to car washes (hand wash only), so I make sure its garaged prior to being too cold, the more miles i have on it, the lesser the value i feel i have on it, the more i drive it, the more issues i find it having, including paint chips, RATTLING!!! and things of that nature...

I would say the people who only put a couple thousand miles on it a year are those who really like and care for their car... And lets be honest, its not the most practical car to drive, so to me, its the car i take when it wont cause me problems....

Luckily, its not my Daily Driver...

So there ya go, some reasons haha.
