Taking My Bronco Through a Automatic Wash

[Mrmike]

Easier than folding in the mirrors?

The Ecosport mirrors don't fold. I don't think the mirrors on my '23 OBX fold either.

I thought I read posts the body panels are so thin an automatic non-touchless car wash will dent the panels.

I gas up at 6am at Costco on Saturday. If it looks dirty, on the way home I'll take it to a touches car wash for $8.00, including tax. It doesn't always get the bird [redacted] and bugs off, but it's good enough.

I use a hose and a bucket, but I also take mine off-road...like real off-road so touchless makes me laugh.

Oh, and Walmart car soap. It was good enough for my Italian girlfriends.

The only car washes I use are either those bays where you hose, wipe down and dry the vehicle yourself or the touch-less ones where nothing but soap, water and drying air touch your car. Washing it myself is done during nicer, milder weather. During the colder months I’ll usually use a touch-less car wash, but even then I’ll still wipe off the windows, lights and such with my own towel afterward.

I can also appreciate the occasional hard rain that cleans the car when I’m at work.

It’s always nice to have a clean car, but during stretches of variable weather you can’t obsess over it. Otherwise it can make you crazy.

Please say you're u go through a touchless wash... Winters in Michigan I do a weekly pass through a touchless wash with a underbody spray... If you're worried about your antenna get the recommended stubby... Brush washes are just bad... All the other cars that pass through get to share their grime with you and like mentioned before it will eventually damage the paint...

I miss this one the most, it was my track buddy. There are so many others, each one a winner.

The 998R is still my favorite generation Ducati, I loved that era with Foggy winning on them.
