Long handled brush. Yes, I know. The top and the tires are all that get the brush treatment. :o

I am seriously jealous of you guys with lowered trucks, I have to drag out my 8ft step ladder to do mine. Although my trucks roof is at just under 7ft at stock ride height.

I have never scratched the side of my truck using a ladder to wash the roof using a brush on a handle. You have a better chance of doing that standing on the bed rails with shoes on.

I passed a Prius on I-45 last Friday. I had no idea those things would run 75 mph. LOL
