i typically wash my truck one's a week, it's a daily driving truck so usually on Saturdays but sometimes it feels like i wash it twice a week. constantly wiping it down and freaking getting rid of bird shit, for some reason my truck attracts bird poop, where is the bee be gun ?

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

haha living in AZ is the reason I dont wash mine.

Honestly I just never got int he habit of washing it. Since I was 16 ive had two cars, an Altima that was my DD and the truck was only driven on weekends going to the party sports in the country or messing around. Never really had to wash it lol.

id say once every 2 months. hah but seriously not as much as i should. when i worked at the detail shopped i can promise i washed it 2 or 3 times a week and got paid for it and made sure i waxed atleast once. people would always say i was going to wash the paint off. i guess i kind of burnt myself out on it hah...

my dad has a very clean z32 that has a fresh paint job and he no lie washes it 3 times a week and waxed it every single time.

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....

Same loke you. If it's not raining my trk is clean. After the rain and no more projected rain for 2-3 days the trk gets washed. My sister thinks I have a problem, and I may. It's called I don't like to see my shit dirty

well, here in the rough and tough Aussie outback, washing a car is a bit difficult. We have water restrictions, but the biggie is that most of the roads are dirt, RED DIRT. Washing the car in a place where it gets dirty 5 min later is a waste of time for me so I usually give the Yukon a hosing off when she starts to look red, or like this....

In the desert, there is no point to washing a truck that is merely dusty... I wash it when the dirt sticks...& that would usually be after we have rain, or maybe if there were dew... around once every month or two. (3 times since August).



I wash my wife's car when it is so filthy I'm afraid it will get me dirty just walking by it.

You live in Florida....the humidity keeps all the dirt stuck to the ground where it belongs.

:lol: I wish! Not as dusty as some areas I'm sure but we have our fair share of crap flying through the air!!

And if thats not enough everytime I wash my truck, which unlike Blizzard, happens atleast once if not twice a week it F***ing rains or the great city of Boca Raton decides that it needs to water the streets so the asphalt doesn't shrivel up and die from lack of water :Stupid Me:

My truck is my DD and its black but I am OCD about my vehicles and I feel that the condition of your vehicle represents who you are :imo:

So you're saying Blizz is a filthy dirty california hog?

I think Blizzard's truck represents him EXTREMELY well :Boo:

It is as off the wall as he seems to be thats we love him around here!! :Handshake:

I already told him I'm gonna Paypal him $20 to get his truck washed but I think he's afraid all his "mods" will wash off :joke:
