Saturdays are my truck days. I get out there and give her a good bath and will usually wipe down with a few products. I usually will do a really good detail about every 3 months though.

I wash mine once a week. Its garage kept and not my daily driver so it stays pretty clean. I QD during the week to keep it spotless.

I would love to do it once a week, but work 6 days a week leaves little time. My truck hasn't been washed in.....a looong time. April maybe?

I do a full tilt detail a few times a year. Once right before winter. Once in the spring. Once around July 4th.

I'm going to try my hardest to get mine done this weekend. It's gotta look good for a road trip.

You should get some ONR and wash whenever you want.

Lets see, between working 60-75 hours a week, working odd hours, not having a garage, bad weather, heavy pollen, sleeping, eating, family life, fixing stuff around the house, trying to work out, and having somewhat of a social life...................... i'd say once each season!

I try and wash mine every week. I havent had a chance to wash the truck in about eight weeks and the #16 still beads well when it rains.

it gets washed about twice a week and waxed every 4-5 months. it's overdue, but im waiting on my order from autogeek to come in later this week to do it, so this weekend it's probably gonna get the full wash, clay, polish, sealant, and carnuba topper.
