My father lives very far away I haven't really gotten much of opportunity to ride with him, but my mother says I drive exactly the same way he does. Same way of going fast in between cars without ever revving the engine, hold the shifter the same way, even the same "disregard" for rules as my dad apparently. If there's a red light and no cars coming, sometimes I'll just cross anyways, my dad does the same thing, same way of holding my drink between my legs towards my crotch even though there's cup holders. I squeeze my car in between the tightest spaces without touching the brakes when there's cars stopped on the road, same as my dad.
Also the same fascination with keeping my car spotless, difference is my dad has someone that washes his car every day, and I clean mine myself twice a week and keep it waxed. My dad can not stand a single scratch in his car, he will fix it instantly and usually repaint, if more than a couple panels need paint he'll just re-paint the entire car to match perfect, I am just as anal with my paint.
So have the rest of you inherited driving/maintenance styles from your folks??
