    It's crazy on the beach. I mean it's an actual beach. These $100,000 motor homes drive out into the water like there's pavement under the waves. For the most part the sand is pretty well packed she. Wet or even damp. So most vehicles can actually drive on it. But higher up away from the breaking waves, the sand is extremely soft. It's hysterical watching these corvettes, RV's and motorhomes getting stuck. The tow truck drivers just cruise around waiting only a short time before they need to pull someone to safety. Ive been there 25-30 times but haven't take. the new truck yet. But I'm sure I will somday.

    I try for once a month. I held off for a while during the drought here in CA, probably like 6 months. Then I held off for about 6 months because it was raining every other day. Now it needs a clay bar and wax next wash.

    Didn't get hail but I was glad the rain got all the dust off

    Glad I didn't wash yesterday, didn't think the rain was going to happen

    I rarely wash mine because I polish it with Aerolon Show Polish and after every wash I wipe it down with there Tech Shine product. Let it rain! After a heavy rain it stays shiny and looks like it never got wet !

    You can't call something "ridiculous" and then claim that as truth. The term ridiculous in it of itself is subjective.

    Water bill is high! Lol. I don't use sponges. I just spray it. Takes about 3 minutes. Then wipe dry. I wax and polish maybe twice a year. I hit dirt roads quite a bit. I hate the dust.

    Oh man. That doesn't leave a bunch of micro scratches? I'd think so since not all the dust is off when you're drying it.
