Question of the Week: Clean or Dirty truck in the winter?

While I might leave some mud on my truck during the summer, I try to keep the body free of salt and road grime during the winter months.

For our Question of the Week, we want to know whether you leave your truck dirty in the winter or leave it dirty all year round - or if you take special care of the vehicle during the colder months.

If I can get it in where I can wash and dry it but it is usually too cold to do without getting frozen door locks. Otherwise it will have to wait even though I won't like leaving like this. I don't have to go far to work so it doesn't get real dirty. In the spring I will go through and do a real cleaning.
