sometimes i feel like i am OCD about my truck being clean, I wash it atleast once a week, and I usually wipe it off a few times in between washes if i can, especially the wheels. just wanted to see how often everyone is bathing their tahoe....

I wash it on average once a week and I don't even drive it, probably dirve 4 hours a week at most!
I do need a duster for the rear and that crappy dust crap that happens back there, don't have rims yet!

Same here (glad i'm not the only one) and depending on the dust I might use my california duster once within the same week.

when they get dirty they get washed as soon as the weather clears up, and like most of you i have the car duster and quick detail spray in the truck at all times. i hate being seen in a dirty vehicle and keep them clean in and out as much as possible.

Weather here isn't nice enough to worry about keeping mine polished all the time. No matter what, it's gonna get dirty. If it's summer and looking like the sun will last a few days, I'll wash it. Don't even really bother more then a couple times in the winter. If it's too cold, the windows freeze shut afterward, which can be annoying and bad for the motors.

Come spring, I'll give it a good, thorough wash, though....lol.

Depends, once every 2 weeks maybe. Less in the winter, but when it's clean I dust and quick detail 1-2 times a day

I used to be OCD about this and still kind of am. When I was on it I would do it MINIMUM once a week but usually twice. Now having a child and other responsibilities I am lucky if it gets done once a week. I will make sure it's done at least every other. The one benefit here is it sits in the garage all week and I drive my work vehicle. It gets out maybe twice during the week and weekends.

Every week!!! Dust everyday, rims especially

I wash atleast once a week, if not twice. Dust it off everyday (I live in Arizona- extremely dusty) and clean the rims everyday. I use Ceramic brake pads with cross drilled/slotted rotors, the only way to go, you gotta use Ceramic pads, keeps the brake dust WAY DOWN. would never go back to regular pads after using ceramic, especially when you have chrome rims and black brake dust shows. feel OCD when it comes to the ride sometimes

yea i put ceramics in the front and dont get any brake dust and im waiting for my rear ones to run down so i can replace those, but i clean it enough to where i really dont have much brake dust problems, there seems to always be construction that i have to drive through and thats what always makes my truck dusty..
