Default The C4 Pledge

If there were to be a C4 Pledge; What do you think some of the pledges should be?

I'll start.

I pledge to use my C4 on a regular basis, not let it fall into disrepair and keep it clean to the best of my abilities because a clean car is a happy car.

I think you have arrived. Now what next?

Personally I pledge to drive it like I stole it EVERYDAY. To never go easy, but also not to exceed the speed limit by a factor greater than
2Xs (oops, broke that one). To add bling and mods even if I have to rob little old ladies and babies. To never, ever park next to a 'ricer', not even in the same parking lot if possible.

Almost forgot--I do pledge to take the 6 bags of potting soil, 4 bags of mulch, and 2 bags of garden quality manure out of the cargo area by this weekend (if it doesn't rain).

Dang, now what else did I forget?
