Are there really people in this country who don't wash their car ever?

[Nocturnal310]

Asked this friend who lives nearby 'so where do you take your car for a wash'. he said he never bothers and has never taken his car for a wash. I have 2 more people tell me the same..they say 'i just let rain wash my car'.

I was astounded and judged them little bit....but are there really lot of people who dont bother taking their car for a wash or self-wash during its entire lifetime?


My dad always gets car washed every other week and get it detailed few times a year so i thought it was the norm. I clean my own car as I dont trust car washes but I spend time doing deep clean under the carriage and every inch under the seat etc.

am i right to judge people who dont wash their car?

Usually people with really chitty beaters

I've seen vehicles that are 10+ years old that have never been washed and the interior have never been dusted, wiped down, vacuumed, etc.


I don't get it but some people are just disgusting. I've been in houses that haven't been cleaned/mopped/vacuumed/dusted in just as long.

I've been told people who clean their cars are idiots.

I hate for mine to be dirty but I ain't got time to wash it 2-3x a week. I don't drive a nice car. POS honda paint has clear failure on it so it only gets washed every month or so.

I gave up on washing my car since I dont have a garage. hasn't been washed in five years

Probably a bit of a different story here because we deal with deep winter, freeze and thaw, etc. But I still try to wash our cars as little as possible, both of them being daily drivers and IMO washing too often just doesn’t add any real value for the cost.

I would put more effort into a weekend sports car but also wouldn’t need to wash it as often

In the summer I wash mine every weekend.

But I definitely know people that I've never seen or heard of them washing their car. Amazes me too. Kinda disgusting especially if the inside isn't cleaned either.

I pull my Tacoma out of the garage when it rains to get washed.

Wash every week crew. In America you just go through those 3 dollar tunnel slapper things that fuk up your paint. That's the hip and lazy way. You're a weirdo if you don't use one of those.

Those “people” you speak of are retarded.

Never wash crew.

Keeping your car clean. Both inside and outside. Keeping your room clean. Keeping your home clean. Your lawn should be fresh.

As elephants spray themselves in a river. As Lions and Felines lick their fur to clean themselves. As dogs lick their genitals and buttholes. As insects clean the earth of mold and fungus. As mold and fungus clean the dead.

It's all a form of sexual ornamentation. It affects on whether she wants to mate with you or not. Whether to continnue the species due to natural selection and darwinism.

Just keep yourself and your things clean.

you gotta more often in winter regions. the salt from the road corrodes the under carriage of a car, its good to hose it down on non-freezing days or take it through a car wash.

The daily truck sits outside (2009 F-150). Wife's car (2020 Jeep) gets the spot in the garage along with my workshop chit.

I wash the truck once every like 3 months, keep it waxed and let the rain do it's thing in-between washes. I clean out the inside once/week though.....pull out trash, vacuum, wipe down

She runs her Jeep through the "touchless" wash once/week....but cleans the inside really only when she knows I'm going to ride it it....which is like once/month. just lol

generally speaking people don't take care of their own bodies. you think they're gonna wash and clean their cars? lol. we are the exception to the rule gents.

i've mentioned in many threads here - i do a yearly coat of IGL ceramic on my challenger. very very strong protectant. my truck i just wax a couple times a year at this point. it looks good for its age. otherwise i wash one or the other every couple weeks as long as rain isn't in the forecast.

My winter driver is a rusty square body chevy that's been painted flat black, even then I wash it maybe 1-2 times a month in the winter. My G8 I wash about 2 times a month when it's driven during the rest of the year.

NPC drivers I can imagine don't wash their vehicles and only vaccum when the car wash place has free vaccum days lol. GROCE

It's probably safe to say that most if not all of us are enthusiasts so I imagine we'd wash our stuff.

[Jax05]

definitely

[chefwhat]

When I was younger, I used to wash my cars religiously every 3-4 weeks. But, I definitely don't have time for that these days. Generally do a full wash/detail 2x a year. Then again, my vehicles are always garage kept and I put less than 6K miles on them a year.
