How often do you wash your car?

It used to be once a week - especially in winter, then we moved into an apartment complex and it hasn't been washed now in over 6 months.

Depends on which vehicle.
I have some that I never wash. And I have some that I can't stand to see a little dust on.There is no best host. There is only the host that's best for you.

Once mines out of the shop with the body kit in a week or so I will probably be washing it every 2-3 days.

Depends on how busy I am .. I voted for every now and then, since I haven't gotten it washed in a few months, but I would like to purchase a new car within the next year or so.

Find out how often it rains, if that counts as washing.

I wash my car once in a while for the most part. Though once in a while I will wash it 2 times a month or so. Though if you count rain... I have washed it for the last 7 days non stop for the most part....

I have a black Lincoln (okay, I'm a glutton for punishment) that I have washed four times in a week.
I have an old, red and gray Ford pickup that I last washed in 1999.There is no best host. There is only the host that's best for you.

About once a month, though my parents was their Mercedes quite often...because of the amount of salt that gets up where we live.

I have two semi-new cars I try to wash at least every two weeks, I have had some other junk boxes which were never washed for years at a time.

I don’t wash it very often at all. The only way my car ever gets washed is either when it rains, or it looks too terrible to be driven and I feel embarrassed going out in it (so I then decide to wash it).

I washed mine last night because I'm taking some people out tomorrow. Usually every 2 months or so, but every couple weeks I'll hose it down and squeegy the windows. That makes a big difference, you can see the dirt just rolling off. Silver is great for not showing dirt as bad as some other colors. I think black is probably the worst.

I aim for once a week, and a full detail every 3-4 months.

Well normally "once in a while" but now that I have a kinda nice ride, I tend to wash it or get it washed pretty regular.

once a month or so
