Washed my car yesterday. I found a nice big paint chip on the front bumper. I think the scoobie was in a small fender bender before I bought it. Either that or there were massive rock chips or something. The front bumper was repainted half ass. I think I might just leave it though. The car will be paid off in a year or two, so I'll just keep it as a nice winter car. So yeah anyway, yesterday I had a nice clean car, and today it's dirty again. I love Minnesota . Oh, and to top it all off, my freakin' doors froze shut!! :blink:

Yeah, I haven't washed my car in like 3-4 weeks because I just figure it's a waste of money right now. I gave it a good coat of wax before the first snowfall....I figure I'll be good. lol

Also, I can't take it through automatic car washes because then water leaks in so I always have to wash it by hand...which in the winter time sucks because as soon as you leave the car wash (if you can't hand dry it) the water turns to ice.

Remember what happened last year when you went with me Mark? Ice built up around my sunroof and it popped open on the way home. Not too cool...

Anyway, enough rambling for me tonight...

I havent washed it in about 2 or 3 months... its too cold and I get lazy in the cold, plus its been snowing shitty one inchers for the past 3 weeks.... why wash it...

We need a nice dry spell. I never have a problem with my sunroof or leaking...

I've only washed my car once since I've had it, and I don't plan on washing anytime soon, or anytime at all.

Mine is looking nice in the garage now . I washed it the day before it went in. Then it started raining before I got it in. Since the car is black, it looked like shit. A few days later, I pushed it out and washed it again. Now clean :cheers: .
