dirtiest mustang

RE: dirtiest mustang
Wash as needed... maybe 2-3 times a month. Wax so far none... the dealer I got the car from has an "autobutler" service.. they reapply every 6 months.. keeps the car very nice... I think it was a bit of a unfair add on from them.. they told me every car they sell goes out with it..... but so far it seems good...

I wash my baby about once a week (or 10 days), but haven't needed to wax her at all yet (took delivery November 1st) because I don't drive her in rain or snow and she sleeps in the garage.
Still as shiny as the day I got her (and I clean off the brake dust from the mags with a soft paper towel every time I drive her so there's no build up).
forensicsteve- if you want to see what your car will look like in just a few years of not caring for her, then come take a look at my POS beater.....
Wingman- unless there's snow or ice on the road, you don't know what you're missing by not taking her out when it's freezing cold- she'll run like a scalded dog in those temperatures...!!!

Why buy a grea car then treat it like krap ??? [sm=chairshot.gif]
I wash once a week, wax whenever time allows. But I must admit it is a labor of love. When a see a spot or a little dirt it drives me nuts[sm=headbang.gif]
Oh, by the way I just figured out how to use the little smileys [sm=icon_rock.gif]

quit looking at the bunny

OK....I am in-between lectures....taking a little break. This is a contest that I think I canactually win. I have hadthe car almost 5 months nowand havesprayed water on it once, no soap though(maybe 4 months ago?). How often do you wash, clean, and even wax your beautiful mustangs? Iwill likelynever wash mine. I think the daily build up of dirt, oil, grime, and rubber (by rear wheel wells) gives mine character.

And here I thought this post was about who really did have the dirtiest car--and I was going to have to shamefully say it was mine, until yesterday. We finally got our first snow, and it was huge (for us, all at once), and the mucky roads have been at my car daily for two weeks or so, with no time for a wash. It was completely gross!!
Now it's all better, and I can touch it again without having to wash my hands instantly! FWIW, I try to wash every couple of weeks, unless time allows for more often than that, and every time it's washed, I use Spray-On Wax from Griot's Garage. Great stuff, and I probably won't have to really do a full wax until the summer. I'm going to order some of the Speed Shine from them next so maybe I won't have to wash it as often, even.
So why would you not wash your car? And why would you admit to it here if you do let it rot?? I'm not sure I get the point of this post, now that I see what it's really about??

You really need to take this picture off. It is just too distracting from the subject at hand.
