dj cowboy Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Does anybody else find it necessary to wash the car after a road trip? My last trip was to Wausaukee WI and back. Even though my DJ wasn't that dirty, I had t wash it. dhh3 and rolly 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigtsr Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Pride of ownership or neat freak????? jkeaton and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rolly Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I do as well. That way I can't check for stone chips, bugs and get rid of the salt in the winter. It's both pride of ownership and neat freak with a dash of practicality. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I was when we first got it, now I'm like, eh....I got 4 others to wash, and a yard to mow, beer to drink....washing the wifes car is not a priority anymore..... dj cowboy, rolly and dhh3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redtomatoman Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I do. Certainly. I like to get the bugs off. Those things can really damage your paint if left to bake and react in the sun. I plan to keep my DJ for many years. I don't want the paint damaged if I can help it. Peace. rolly and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dhh3 Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I second the bugs. Also, salt in winter, but I only do it if it is above freezing! rolly 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With four cars to wash and mowing you must go through a lot of beer! jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ZINGA Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Depends on the trip. When we drove to Alpena and back, I used a front end mask to catch the bugs and washed the car when we got back. Driving to Port Huron for work, I do it when I do it. I need to do it this weekend... jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfurth Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 I've had too many other projects going on to wash mine. It's got a film of dirt all over. Mind you, it's still reflecting light on to other cars, and you can see the depth of the Blue Streak Pearl. But it's not clean, and I'm not happy about that. It needs a fresh coat of wax too, but that's going to have to wait another few weekends. jkeaton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is an insulated cup holder on the bucket and cup holders on the mower! dj cowboy, rolly and jkeaton 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 There is an insulated cup holder on the bucket and cup holders on the mower! Of course! Also have a cooler bolted to the hood! dj cowboy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
