Default No better feeling then getting a few winter washes in...

Up here in Philly this doesn't happen all too often in the winter but with 60 degrees today I got a good wash in on the TA. Also washed it on XMAS Eve. I envy you warm weather city guys.

Warmer weather here, pretty nice. Wish I would've washed my car today instead of last week when it was between 18-20 degrees out. The water was freezing on the driveway, so I had to actually stop washing my car for a moment so I could salt the friggen ground. Then I go back to washing the car and the damn water was all frozen to the car. You know it's too cold when you sponge the soap on the car, go to rinse it off and it's all frozen already.

I washed my car Friday and it was at least above freezing, but I honestly forgot how good my car can look! (to me anyway)

Thanks McG, we just moved in September so we're still getting used to it. But so far we are very greatful that we are able to make the monthly payments

I wouldn't take it to the car wash either I think this weekend its supposed to rain, but if it doesn't I would def wash it. Its been a pretty good winter thus far though

I'm really getting sick of Minnesota. Our seasons suck. I envy you guys in the warm weather. Here are the typical seasons of Minnesota: Almost winter, winter, still winter, and road construction. I'm dying to wash and drive my TA. I can't wait until spring!
