Taking care of your car...

Why dont people take care of their cars? I must admit, I have been very, very guilty of this in the past. I thought that it was not a big deal and that it would not cause any damage, but I was wrong. I guess that most feel this way or they dont have the time or the money. I can understand the money issue but time can be worked out. I have a lot of work that needs to be done on my car, though it is doing pretty good, and we just dont have the money, but all the basic work is indeed done. I guess that is the important thing at the moment.
