No, I don’t. I have a TDI I’m turning in so I will be plowing my driveway with its front bumper.

I want to Svend the Camry so bad, but it was too cold, and now it’s warmer, but the streets are a slushy mess so it would be pointless.

-9° is much too cold for the Svending. Talk to me in 3 months.

I want an xc90 so badly!

I’m just worried the driving position is going to really bother my knee.

I mean I feel it in a little pain after 40 minutes in mom’s Outback

Thankfully it’s the beast T5 with a hilarious eBay BOV. I have 5 V8's lying around my shop floor. Rad but trash engines

i’m 5'10" 240lbs. It is good for me though it would be perfect if it went a little lower and if the bottom front tilted higher. The Z4 on the other hand.... pure hell! Perfect for my wife at 5'1" at a buck 15, but not too comfy for my fatass

a short trip would probably just coat it in that stuff. It would drive crazy having to live in a place that snowed

Looking good. A clean car is a happy and productive car.

Have you sealed El Moose with a sealant or wax?

The cars I’ve seen of late here are so cringeworthy and filthy

Going to give Piglet another wash in a day or two. It’s starting to build up along the lower valances.

I’ve never waxed El Moose or El Zapatito since i’ve owned them (one year). I have Monday off and I’ve already borrowed the tools and materials from our detail guys here at work to give them a good buff, polish, and wax.

It’d cold, rainy, and we’re still technically in a drought. 11" down on rain from the average.

sheeeeeeet, that’s not good.

Yep, I live half a mile from the car wash. It would be filthy by the time I got home.

EL_ULY > Jcarr

because of that snow slush or whatever it’s called? Basically cold mud

I’ve never been a waxer, just a sealer, longer protection and less picky application as many waxes behave differently.

The three on the right of the picture are great, the Foam is a cleaner and lays down a little protection, rinse off, spray on Wetcoat which lays down a heavy coat of protection, rinse to activate, then loosely dry and then wipe down with Cure to seal it all and add an extra level of protection.

Kinja'd!!!

Have fun with your cleaning fella. It’s very rewarding to see the finished look.

I’ll research sealers right now. The detail guys have them but I asked for wax.

Jcarr > EL_ULY

Yeah. What’s really the worst is just the spray from driving and being in traffic. Imagine driving in the rain, but that rain is dirty and contains road salt. Just a short distance and your car ends up looking like this:
