I don't like a dirty truck. I usually wash mine every other week.

 

People at work comment how I am crazy for always having to have my truck clean...and I say well DUH it is black!!

 

I give you credit. I was the same way for years, so I know what that's like. Especially in the winter. The older I'm getting, the more my truck see's the automatic touch less wash in the winter. I still keep plenty of Collinite 845 on the truck though.

 

Thanks.
Completely a labor of love and not out of necessity. The Sterling Gray doesn't show grime like others and I love that. But she sure does look purdy all cleaned up.


Shameless pic:

 

Looks nice! The nice thing about grey is it still looks good when it's dirty.

 

Optimally, I'd like to once every other week. With winter and working away from home I don't get to that often.

Last time she was cleaned up and waxed (pre snow and accident)

 

Every time it rains.

 

missed a spot! LOL looks good

 

Looks great MCDavis.

 

Accident??

 

As others stated I actually enjoy detailing my truck I dont see it as work.....and also as someone mentioned I always detail it prior to a road trip gotta look sharp cruising down the highway so yes I'm a once a weeker guy on the washing

 

Once a week or more in the summer, in the winter weather permitting i still try to do it once a week if its not to warm out causing road grime.

I miss being able to do this...

 

Washed mine again today. Had to get the road treatment crap off of her from the ice we had on Wed.

 

I wash it if it is really dirty, or really smelly (I was working at a garbage dump for a few weeks) or if I am doing something that I need to look my best, like attending a wedding.

In general, the rain takes care of the surface grime.
