I have an unlimited use car wash pass, only $25 per month and renews automatically on the first of every month. I love it, I can drive through the car wash every day if I want, and I often do, especially in the winter.

I like a clean car.

Not nearly as often as I would like. Damn it is hard to keep a black car looking clean. I rarely do it myself. Just don't have the time to do it properly.

Thus the adage, "black isn't a color, it's a part-time job".

And I totally knew that going in. But when it is clean it looks amazing.

I wash underneath the jeep at a carwash when I need to do some work or add an upgrade. People look at me funny when I'm done and the jeep is filthy and covered with dry mud up top.Hey I only have so many coins.

No snow or salt in Arizona but the dust gives me enough of a headache. I have two vehicles, and wash one of them every other weekend, or sometimes both each weekend, depending how much free-time I have. Then again, I'm pretty anal when it comes to cleanliness of anything.

I wash mine when it looks dirty.....which isn't often because I have a sand colored car.....and that's why I bought that color!

In the winter I wash it more often because of the salt.

I always go to the coin/wand car washes and do it myself......just costs a few dollars most of the year......more in the winter when I also wash underneath the car to get the salt off.

I do the interior myself, at home, once winter is over....... because that's when the mats need a good cleaning.
