Virtually all weekend or longer trips it is me, wife dog so can't drive it. Anytime it is more than 2 people can't drive it. If my wife is driving or she might become the DD she can't drive a manual. It is poor at hauling anything of size. The list goes on. I don't feel bad about it, drive it when I want and am not trying to preserve it.

Similar situation to you, so it's great to see I'm not alone. It's just been a super busy year, and on top of that, the cars need maintenance and repairs. So between all that, the only car that gets driven nowadays are the M2 and daily.

Having said that, I know there's barely any new cars that interest me and I know the days of ICE will be coming to an end at some point. This is why mine are just collecting dust and not being sold. I have no plans to make a profit, but it's also nice to know they're not really losing money.
