Car friend

Is it normal to think of my car as a friend? I've owned it for 7 years, and it just seems like an old friend to me. I often talk to it. Is this normal?

    I consider mine as more of a pharmacy, liquor store and hotel.

    Yeah, I feel the same about mine. She even has a name "Mery" from Maria. The car is a Mercedes, so I feel that Mery is a nice name. Anyway. She has never caused major problems. Only minor stuff. For about 7 years, I had to change a turbo hose, a lightbulb and now some A/C insulation. I just feel a bond with this car. I really feel bad if I have to go over a bad road.
    And I hate leaving her at parking lots. I fear someone might break the star or damage the paint.

    yeah its normal. i love my cars, i have a couple and they have different personalities. they have all looked after me and protected me and we have been through a lot together so i can understand the connection.

    hahaha that last comment was brilliant. thats totally what everyone uses their car as. an then it becomes a hotel room for you when your parents kick you out for some stupid shit.

      I left mine once for 4 months in the garage. Semester break, went home. When I came back, she was covered in dust and when I started the car, the radio started playing Axel Rudi Pell's "Broken Heart".
      Should I consider it talking? Dunno, but it was a bit strange to hear that specific song at the verse when I started her. After I went to the car wash to clean my car. Went out, started cleaning it. When I got back in, radio starts playing Tina Turner "Simply the best".
      Maybe she is trying to say something. XD
