How often you wash your tacomas?

Not enough and I'll regret it later

 

Easily once a week. Not hard to do when you’re set up.

 

@FLAK-TAC solid setup. How do you like the Karcher pressure washer? I'm looking to do a similar setup, but not sure with pressure washer to go with..

 

That karcher has been a work horse. For the money you can’t beat it. It’s been flawless for 2 solid years of weekly washes. I was planning on upgrading expecting this one to die sooner but I can’t kill it. My only gripe is that it’s kinda loud but I can live with that.

 

Good to hear. Appreciate the feedback!

 

The clubs look like they need a detailing, it’s at least an extra 15 yards .

 

I’ve been trying to wash off the paint at least every other week forever. Tried today but no luck just came out shiny again.

 

Typically I wash my truck probably 1-2x a year.

This year it's gotten a lot more as I try to help out a buddy who's struggling

 

I wash mine once a week, especially in the winter. Fluid film the frame too. Never taken my third gen through an automatic touch wash and never will. I just use the diy pressure washer at the car wash. I use Meguiars hybrid spray wax, Meg wheel cleaner, and their bug and tar remover in the summer for bug guts.

 

This ^^

 

It's been a long time since I had a vehicle that was worth washing. Now that I have a new Tacoma I'm doing it as often as I can fit it in but being winter and salt season just keeping the salt off is a priority. I never did have a great way to wash in the winter. Trying to drag a heavy stiff hose and no real way to get the most important part, the undercarriage, I now have a great solution. I got a couple of those magic hoses and a spray wand with adjustable spray patterns and head. Works great with minimal effort. I got this stuff from Home Depot.

 

Have you had any issues with that hose leaking where it's not supposed to yet?

 

@MARSHBUSTER No it has worked well so far for the three times I've used it. I don't know the long run though. The hose ends seem a little cheap. It was $29 at Home Depot for a 50 footer. I needed two of them.

 

3-4x a year. I need to get a foam spray. That’ll be nice.

 

About twice a year

 

Once a month? Have to use a touchless laser wash thingy. I'd wash it sooner but black truck and apartment living

 

Pretty sure I washed mine 6 or 7 years ago. No plans to wash any time soon. Seriously.
