The Case Against Washing Your Car

[NicFromLA]

Normally unless you're competing in a rally or an endurance race, I'm a strong supporter of keeping your car clean. Unless of course you're doing something like this: 25 Awesome Dirty Car Window Drawings (http://www.holytaco.com/25-awesome-dirty-car-window-art)

supports my view that for the average driver the things happening behind him on the road are not worthy of being seen.

Last time we washed the Delta the interior got wet. So yes I'm against washing it for the moment...

I just washed mine after 4 months and 35.000km no washing. The mud was even on the roof lining inside.. Do keep my windows and mirrors clean weekly-ish.

See "Sydney Dust Storm" thread for why you should wash your car.

I'm relying on Mirrors ATM until I can get to a Service Station.

Yeah, I was surprised the first time too. Then I thought about the weight of the water.. The sheer amount of water that would fit in that bucket...

I washed my car 2-3 times a week..the roads here are not that good..

I never wash my jeep and it always annoys me when someone else does (take it in to the dealer for an oil change, for instance.) I do wipe off the windows occasionally, though. I'm really not artistic enough to do this anyways.

[S.O.S]

We're in the middle of a drought, an i believe the government should allow me special privileges to wash my car. My argument for... When i wash the car it rains a day after without failure.

Just let me clear out anything I want from the interior and I'll give you the coordinates.

I am afraid to wash my Cavalier because it has an ungodly amount of body rust. One run through an automated car wash and the bottom half of my car will probably just disappear!
