How often you wash your ride?

[CKTA]

Unless it is raining or freezing outside how often?

[CKTA]

Me = every week unless raining or freezing.:D

[Jokeman]

Every week I go to the spray bay to get the salt off. I haven't hand washed the truck yet because it has been too cold up here. You southerners are lucky.

[1badgmc]

Well, since my truck gets to sit in the garage all the time and only comes out in perfect weather, once or twice a month is the most it ever gets washed. Usually less than that.

hehe...I don't feel so bad now. :D

As far as our other 2 cars, I try to wash the Bimmer at least once a month. My car will just go dirty until I can't stand to look at it anymore. LOL

[99GMC]

Probably about every other week:D At least the exterior:LOL:

[AZdragger]

i'd be to afraid to wash my truck, with the dirt and mud gone, what will hold it all together. :D Actually it gets a very good wash every 2 to 3 months wheni get the oil changed, otherwise, i just aim for water puddles and let the hi speed wash do the work ;)

[Big Blue HD]

2-3 times a week. More in the winter :cool: (yeah I know, I'm gonna wash the paint right off :rolleyes: :LOL: )

Nothin' wrong w/ that, if you got the time. I did when I had my last GTA....there was not a day that car was dirty!:cool: I wish I had the time i used too.:(

[CarmineSilverad]

Every two days.....I live on a dirt road with a lowered ride. Its abour 3/4 of a mile of dirt, just enough to get it dirty and tick me off. Good news tho, moving out this week. To a house with PAVEMENT!....WWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOO HHHHOOOOOOOO!!!!

I wash at the house. When I lived in an apartment last year, I washed it at my parents' house.

A couple of years ago we were in a water shortage here and you weren't allowed to wash your cars at home. That really sucked! I hate having to use a car wash!

[1BADHD]

Vaccum and dust every Friday. Wash it every Friday if it isnt raining. If it rains early in the week I'll wash it twicw in one week. I go to the spray bays since its not the warmest. I'll hand wash it when it gets warm.

True dat.

I last washed mine before board/ski season. Kinda pointless to keep washing it if I am gonna get it real dirty every weekend :rolleyes:

Thats what I usedto think... but the past 2 months have turned my frame a bright orange color, so I'm gonna have to do some frame rubberizing this spring :(

[454ss]

I try to wash my daily driver once a week, but have gone 2 weeks when it's cold, I don't go to car washes....I hate swirl marks.:cussing:

[rollinstyle]

I try to do mine every Sunday, but homework never fails to get in the way. Plus, every time I wash it I get real pissed for a while b/c there are soo many swirl marks that stand out. And my truck is black so by the nex morning it is caked in dust b/c of the damn wind here. Oh yeah, I habd wsh it, but use the sprayer at the car wash if it's really caked on there.

I used to wash my Z28 3-4 times a week if it was rainy. That was crazy, but the car always looked new :D

[BC Rod and Custom]

i wash mine about every other week. last time i went muddin though i left it on for about a month before i really washed it good. i polish all the chrome about once a month and try to do the wheels every once in a while but it sure is a pain to polish my aluminum wheels.

Could be worse, you could look like him!:eek:

[N2TRUX]

It depends on the weather. If it's been nice, I may go all week without washing mine. If it's crappy, I wash them more often. I can't stand riding in a dirty truck. Of course when you have a garage, and driveway full of trucks, you wind up washing something almost every day...

I just now voted, and I'm #3 on the 5-8 wash.

Normally it'd be once a week, but its winter so I have to vote the truth :(

[bigred305]

I wash my truck at least once a week, if the weather is clear. When it is clear I usually am detailing it in some way about every day, but that is what you have to do when the weather is nasty and you have to drive every day. (wish I had a beater)

ROFLMFAO!!!!!

[02Silverado]

I wash my truck about once a week, if I have time. I am a mobile detailer so there is no way in hell I am going to take it to the chop shop to get washed. The red would probably be pink after 1 or 2 washes at a car wash.:mad:

[K1500Tech]

:fsc:

I wash mine every week it also helps that my work has an automatic carwash so I can wash it on my lunch break.

[Silverad04]

I wash mine every chance I get!!! With this damn rain and humidity in NC I can never have a clean ride!!!:(



edit: damn this is an old a$$ tread!!!!!!!!!!

[tatoodkelt]

The Chevelle pretty much every week.
The Tahoe once a month or so.
The Silverado usually the day before I go wheeling again.

[00shortbox]

Usually once a week or so, depending on the time of year.

[TC2000]

Every week here too.. gotta keep the tree sap and bird crap off it.

[bigburb]

ever since my wreck two years ago i haven't washed mine. between the orange peel and clear coat cracking i figure it looks better dirty.

[Silverado_13]

I can literally get mine washed every single day if I wanted to, but normally only get it washed once or twice a week. Not just the outside either... inside, outside, bed, tires, wheels, rain-x... I guess it helps that I work at a carwash?

[domano 68]

Used to wash it a few times a week. Now that we have 2 little ones, I am lucky to wash it 2x a month. :)
