When you no longer even try to get the grease from under your fingernails.
When you know the size of every nut and bolt on your suspension setup and can get the tools you need in one try.
When you see ANY traffic other than you as a “threat”.
When you make engine noises such as the point of VTEC crossover in the shower. (I do this at times)

I don’t know how many times after work I’ve gone to the passenger’s side of my personal car to get in to drive.
This thread makes me sad, if I had my Teg to drive maybe it would be just the opposite.
You know you spend to much time on your car when you offer to spend the day working on someone else’s.
Your girlfriend keeps threatening to leave you because you care more for your damn car than you do for her.
Speaking of which, were is she anyway?
Oh ya, safe in the garage were I parked her.
What did you think I was worried about were my girlfriend is?

…people knock on your garage door before they knock on your front door.
…you know way too much about the ups guy that keeps dropping off your parts.
…you get to work and still have parts or tools in your pockets.

This one probably rings most true for me. Not necessarily the suspension, but knowing a random assortment of bolt sizes, and being able to pick up the right size on the first try.
