i wash my jeep about 3 times a week on average. i used to wash it every day when i first got it.

but my job allows me to wash my car daily

it is always really clean, but i do need to do the interior its all dusty and i need to vacuum.

i dont have time to give mine a full detail. i've got 3 vehicles and i can EASILY spend an entire day cleaning one. mine gets washed 4x as much as the interior gets cleaned....but my interior doesn't get that dirty very quick. if anything i'll put out the shopvac and vacuum the drivers side floorboard, it's the dirtiest place inside the car

Well, my Civic's the cleanest car in my fleet of 4 right now, and it's been actually washed twice in about a month since I got it running - mostly because it's 'new' (to me). I still need to polish and wax the paint, and I've been working on the glass pretty much this whole time as well. The interior was thoroughly cleaned after I got it running, and haven't done anything to it since.

My '97 4x4 Dodge Ram gets throughly cleaned about once a month when I'm driving it regularly... but since I got the Civic, not so much. My '80 Jeep CJ-7 gets a through detail job about twice a year, and lives in the garage most of the time. The wife's '01 Grand Prix GT gets washed whenever I get around to it, and it lives in the garage most of the time as well.

I used to wash my Mustang just about every weekend when I was young and single - mostly because I was bored and/or really honestly enjoyed it. And I don't really mind doing it these days - I just have way too many other things to do now. Sucks getting older.

I'm going to be working on my tunes today - building a box with 2 8" subs and a 200watt amp. Beyond that, I still need a new IAC, and everything else beyond that is pretty much squared away.

exterior like 2 times a month. always hand done, never ever take my car to an automatic wash cuz they never make it shine like i can. interior like once every couple months. never carry much around inside and i dont dirty it up. my friends know not to make a mess inside.

i havn't really washed the exterior sincei got my car other then the windows..only cause its got mix matched paint at the momenet.. but when its painted i'll do it frequently.. i wash under the hood about 2 times a month and i vaccuum the interior whenever i do anything to it.. so ac ouple times a month it gets super thorugh cleaning
