For a while the old bedroom carpet I had thrown on the driveway and was parking my car on it. I kind of liked it (like a showroom!) but after a few rains I rolled it and threw it away.
I had a carpeted driveway for a summer in college... nice high pile white carpet over gravel... Of course I didn't have the SD then, so it stayed pretty clean. Excellent lat stop for a piece of rug.

CLK... 24 year old carpet?? have you tried munching it??
