I don't hand wash because I have very hard water where I am, so every place I *might* miss during the wipe-down ends up being a big white water spot. So even though I do the jambs, under-hood, trunk, wheel-well edges, and exhaust tips every single time, I'm sure I'd miss something.

Luckily I live 1.7 miles from a car wash, so I pressure wash it there, then drive it home and wipe it off with a wet terrycloth towel. This has worked brilliantly for years because I spend quite a while making sure the car is completely clean before I leave the wash, and the road home is clean and short.

Take into account that my car never really gets dirty, so there is never any need for a real wash with a mitt and such. And coupled with the fact that most of my car is covered in PPF, and the rest of it is always waxed, it works.
