Dirty Truck

I was wondering how dirty everyones truck gets in the rain. I look at my truck and just driving 30 minutes in the rain and my truck is real dirty. Also, my rims get real dirty. My truck looks like I've been driving a few weeks without a wash. I usually wash it, dry it, clay bar it, then wax it and none of that seems to keep my car looking decent from a short drive in the rain. I see all these other trucks and notice that their rims are still shining and their trucks look pretty clean. I was wondering if there was any special product or if those guys are just washing their trucks during the breaks in the rain...?

Re: Dirty Truck

I wash mine in between breaks of the rain. In fact, I just polished my wheels again today when I got off from work. Plus, I bought a 2000 4wd Blazer to drive everyday since I bagged my truck. When the weather is nice I drive my truck, but if its nasty, its in the garage with its cover on it.

Re: Dirty Truck

if u drive it in ANY kind of rain, even if it's just enough to get the road nice and damp, it's going to get dirty and your rims will definitely look like shit, it's just how it goes... that's the main reason why my truck never gets drove unless it's clear and dry out.... too much work to keep it clean then let it go down a shithole in just a minute
