I don't have the patience either, I'm always looking for automated ways to clean the truck.

First time cleaning something always takes the longest. After you get them all cleaned up the first time as long as you clean them again once a year at least it will be much easier.

When I first got my X it took a good 45 minutes or more each wheel to get them cleaned up. Now they wipe up easily with just a towel when I wash the X.

They're has been studies back in the day saying a clean vehicle has less wind drag versus a dirty vehicle, as for MPG's, it's so miniscue.
