Poll: How do you usually wash your car?

Got a pressure washer at home then I hand wash. Hard to beat doing it on a Sunday afternoon with music and a drink in hand
No, it’s super easy to beat that.
Drive thru then get it detailed once or twice a year depending on how badly a deep clean is needed
side note: have any of you noticed an explosion of the high-end drive-thru car washes lately?
That can not be a cheap investment and the number seems to have exploded in the last 5 years.

Silverstar car washes took over more of Sioux City, Iowa than MAGA did the last few years.
I sacrifice virgins to the rain god.
Since it's almost impossible to find virgins anymore, the car stays dirty.

Have a Hotsy, so usually spray off, then put on the soap attachment and douse it & then use a soft bristled brush. Then finish off with another round of spray. Done.
Do the virgins have to be female? If not I’m pretty sure this board has a few virgins you could sacrifice.
Ha.
Of course they have to be female. Male virgins are obvious losers. No self-respecting god would be pleased by second-rate sacrifices.
Hand wash in summer, drive thru in winter. Spring and fall depends on the weather.
Took me a long while to realize that there's genuine hand washing going on in that gif. Just bare hands, no towels or sponges.
I wonder why it took me so long to notice?
My neighborhood car wash has an app. I have both Jeeps' license plates registered so all I have to do is drive up, scans my plate, gate lifts and I drive through. It's set up for the cheapest, exterior $8 wash, then I use the free vacuums and free floormat shampoo machine.
Then I pull in my garage and detail the rest like tire shine, leather cleaner, air freshener, ect.

By hand in summer. Car wash with the wand in winter. Use credit card and move fast it’s actually pretty cheap.
The piece of crap I commute in I have washed maybe 5 times in five years and that’s just to get snow/ice out of wheel wells. I refuse to work more years just to have a nicer car to drive to work. Makes no sense to me. What I save I invest in Apple, Amazon, and Microsoft.

Yes, the high-end car washes are exploding all over. Never a fan until I recently took advantage of the new Mister Car Wash and their introductory promo of $9.95 for the first month. Really pleasantly surprised at the quality of the wash. It was excellent. Took my car in eight times for the initial month which equated to $2.50 per car wash.
I have to be honest, I didn’t notice till you brought it to my attention.🍺
Drive through once a month maybe. Detailed once a year if I'm lucky.
Hand washing? Fudge that. My time is much more valuable.

I just trade it in for a new clean car when it gets dirty
All vehicles signed up for unlimited washes at Foam Carwash which charges $35.00 a month then hand wash when needed for that extra little work needed on the interior and exterior. Will take the vehicles to a detail shop as needed at least once a year too. Like to have clean vehicles inside and out.
I do non-soap home power washer rinses during warm weather, plus a hand wash/power rinse 2-3 times per summer.
As needed, I'll visit a drive thru touchless automatic at some point during winter when I know overnight temps will be above freezing - just to get the salt spray gone. Both vehicles will probably get one of these this week ($11/each).

One day I hope to be in Key West for the Army Special Forces fundraiser car wash. The pics I’ve seen are 🔥🔥🔥. They had one yesterday.

Fund-raising car wash
The U.S. Army Special Forces Dive Team caused quite a stir on Saturday while doing a fund-raising car wash at VFW Post 3911 on North Roosevelt Boulevard. The team is
I had to go with other. I’ve been taking advantage of the open border lately so I’m pretty much over doing any kind of manual labor now that I have Manuel.
