in the northeast, and with towing snowmobiles in winter, it gets a rinse just about every weekend when I get back and wash off the sleds

 

in the summer, it gets washed about every two weeks(or whenever the chrome 20s are lookin a lil dull)....too busy jetskiing and camping....

Mine is pretty much on the daily. I have a code to one of the quick washes in town so I get free quick washes and its the deluxe one too. The I take her home vaccum her out, wipe down the dash, clean the windows, quick detail the wheels and the truck to get off any remaining water spots that didn't get blown off between the dryers and the drive home. When it's less humid out I will hand wash and chamois dry her. And just about before I go anywhere i use my quick detailer on everything to make it look just detailed. I've got this stuff you can use on the black plastic, chrome, glass, aluminum, and the paint and makes the paint feel like a babys behind.The quick detiler stays in the truck along with about 4-5 microfiber clothes.

My last truck's ('02 Sierra Ext cab) paint was pewter and it hid alot of dirt. My company takes care of my oil changes, washes, etc. so I wash it whenever it looked like it needed it. the new truck and it's paint (red) will require a few more, I think.

 

Here in WI, I may wash it twice a month or every week at most, depending on the weather.

i work everyday except sunday, so i usually was the out side wipe the inside down, vacum, and armor all the floormats and pedals. clean out the cups and trash from the week of school to get ready for the next week of abuse :D .

 

every few weeks i check the fluids and to make sure all the lights i added are working. and i just do a walk around after that.

Hell never if i cant get the weather to corporate, my truck is screaming for a clay bar treatment and fresh coat of wax, when it gets wet it is one continuous sheet of water on the paint, there is not one bead of water when it gets wet. Next time we actually see 50+ degree weather and the sun at the same time i need to get to work on it.

Well, I bought my 08 Sierra Sat. night 3/8/08 now it's Wed. and I've already washed it twice. And I'm talkin the LONG 4,5 hour job too. I just love this truck!! Got the windows tinted yesterday and now lookin for a billet grill for her. Already has 2 coats of Rain X on all the windows too.

Ehh im around 1-2 times a week, depending how much i drive it. In the winter its once, in the summer I can be around 3. If you put a scratch or finger mark on my paint though, you better be ready to hear about it for about a year lol

Well it depends. Depending how dirty I get it or how ambitious I am. Sometimes it's by the week, sometimes a few times a year. The dirty the jobs the more often I clean it up.

In the winter I try to do it weekly, or at least every other week, and after every snow storm to get the salt and sand off of it. In the summer it isn't as often, probably once a month since I usually don't get it too dirty.
