"Un-assisted" Car Wash

OC40 · 10-09-2013, 06:55 PM

I purchased my F30 in February. I believe today is the first time it has received a car wash without my assistance (aka rain).

That is all. Please carry on.

I try to keep my car clean, auto car wash every week, and hand wash once every two weeks. Obsessive? Probably. Oh well, cars are a hobby of mine. I try to keep cars clean in the winter where they salt the crap out of the roads!

Tomorrow's forecast in Phoenix: Rain
Solution: take the wife's G coupe and make her take the third car (Lexus ES). Leave the F30 in the garage : )

That, my friend, is a plan!

This is probably all the rain we will see this season so enjoy the unassisted car wash while it lasts. Also finally get to push that auto wiper button

My wife and I hand wash our cars every other week as well. Unfortunately, we just washed ours on Sunday.

DrivenByE30 · 10-09-2013, 10:21 PM

LOL ... around here i dont remember when the last time it rained... so long ago...

chaos everywhere... Just got another "free wash"

yarviinn · 10-10-2013, 10:13 PM

I love the rain. It's the only time my car gets washed.

rallybull · 10-10-2013, 10:14 PM

ouch... the first rain of the season can contain diluted acid. You should quickly implement a plan for an assisted wash.

PINeely · 10-11-2013, 06:21 PM

My god I hate it when it rains on my car. But mine is black and I wash weekly, so rain just gets it dirtier.

Wash mine at least once a week. Wax at least once a month.

You only wax it once a month?

Sorry, I couldn't help myself.

Jealous Canadian.

My cars get the free wash nearly everyday down here, however, no snow and crap to deal with!
