Uhhhhhhh so I’m guessing the things I’ve put all my vehicles, personal and work-wise, would give him a heart attack.

You need a pressure washer!

Probably! Or I need to move to a town where the car wash isn’t a coin-operated pressure washer.

I only ever use coin op pressure washers (if I am not hand washing) . I love them

Rain and driving fast, same thing as a pressure washer

I grew up in central Illinois where the grid roads were chip sealed. During the summer, the tar would melt, get kicked up by the tires and cover everything. That was the worst to get off of the paint. (At least you got free underbody rust protection.)

That only works if you’ve got a good length of  pavement. Rain tends to turn the grids into a Corb Lund song. Still though, the mud beats the hell out of the dust.

That sounds genuinely awful . Where I live, straight roads allegedly exist. If you look closer, you will find they aren’t straight. Or level. And very rarely are parallel to another “straight” road.

Look up Atlanta on Google maps. It is the best grid you’ll find anywhere near it. And almost all of those are two lane roads 2-6 lanes wide.

In fact, there is like one national park road that's unpaved near me and a few random gravel alleys. Public roads inaccessible in all but the lowest of supercars basically don't exist.
