I see guys in their short sleeve t-shirts going over 100km/h on 400-series highways. I wonder what will happen if they get hit with one of those.
Gave the Montero a well deserved bath this weekend and got the oil changed. Still surprises me at how many people drive into a carwash and with the car bone dry and covered in mud and grit, take the foam brush to it.....hurts my soul.

DUDE?!?!?!? A shovel, wtf, no matter how much I disliked my car, I would still not take a shovel to it. I've used a push broom to take most of the snow off and then used the snow brush closer to the paint. A shovel....for shame.
I've used a shovel. When it was like 2 feet on top of the car. Just leave a buffer of snow.
I'm gonna have to break down and wash the Subaru.Last one was in mid-November. It is beyond gross dirty.

did a wand wash on the jeep... was getting so bad i couldn't see out the windows... took 5 minutes for the body to look just as dirty, but at least the glass is still transparent.

I'm thinking no excuses The snow has been washing mine lately, with the Thule on now I can't get into any automatic car washes & the coin wash is just too much hassle.
