Wash your car/truck/van/etc

I would probably wash it more than "when I can", but the color of my truck lends itself to rarely looking dirty //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

whenever i can, which usually falls around once every month. During the winter, it doesnt really get washed.

I am completely opposite. I wash mine probably once a week in the winters. Have to get the salt off or you will be riding in a rust bucket before you know it.

Maybe you don't get bad winters or something, I can't remember were you are from.

Summer months, probably once a month. I ususally take it through the car wash place though, lol! I don't spend as much time as I should on my car.

I do usually detail it twice a year, which I will be doing next week due to my wedding and we are using my car. So there goes a good 6-8 hours of busting my balls!

I wash it once a week. i keep it parked in the garage so it stays clean.

Its a white cargo van... So I basically never wash it.

When I get my system in and playing, and get some exterior mods Ill keep it clean, but for now, I could care less. I just wipe down the windows sometimes to keep visibility. And theres the trails of nasty water that dried down the car from washing the windows.

I love washing and getting my truck clean but it is a royal pita so I usually only do it on those nice sunny days when I get the idea to go and do it. Generally about once a month or so. Got me a nice one of those brushes for cleaning boats and RVs a few weeks back to make the next washing easier lol.

I try to make sure it's washed once per week on avg. DUring the summer I can get away with once every two weeks but I always wash it once per week in the winter. Salt just destroys vehicles unless you keep them clean.

I take my truck to car shows about once or twice a month so I factor that in when I decide when to wash it. I also watch the weather.com like a hawk. It's a science! I rarely waste my effort anymore since I started planning ahead.

Used to feel like it rained only because I washed it lol.
