Truck Detail

It's rare that I don't have my truck washed by someone else. I'm leaving in the morning for a quick trip to the LA area and I didn't want to spend a bunch of money when the truck is going to get covered with bugs and other assorted road grime.

I kind of forget about just how big full sized pick up trucks are when you have to wash them by hand in the drive.

Hope is not a strategy.

Nice truck! It must be a pain in the ass to wash lol.

I have always washed my own cars, but I’m thinking of having somebody wash my Land Cruiser for me. It takes me twice as long to wash it as any other car I’ve owned. I miss my small 3 series sometimes.

Good looking truck!

I usually get my F150 detailed once a year and then I go to the car wash every 3-4 weeks. I have a California Duster I tend to use for a week os so after the car wash. If I wipe the truck down daily it stays nice and fresh. But if it gets really dirty or I forget to do it for a week, then I can't use it anymore because it's just too dirty for the duster.

I really want to handwash my truck but never seem to be able to make the time.

Keep on truckin'
