    I can't seem to find the motivation to wash my truck. Today would be perfect, 50+ degrees, but tomorrow we will have 3-6" of snow, it's nice for a few days and then snows a few days. I haven't washed my truck since Oct of last year, it's a kind of brown now. :doah:

    I know what you mean, but I have to get that road salt off ASAP.

    I hate it, as soon as I wash it the road salt makes it look like its never been washed.

    yeah steve it sucks this winter man. i just go to the do it yourself wash and spend like 4 bucks and just spray rinse it then high pressure soap it and then spray rinse it again it cleans it but i dont kill myself for spending 18 bucks on a wash.
