Damn spring pollen

Washed and waxed the ride yesterday. Came out of the office this afternoon and the car is yellow from all the pollen. Love the weather, hate all that goes with it.

At least it isn't covered with sticky smog and rubber dust from an hour drive in Los Angeles

If the Cal Car Duster is overkill (meaning the pollen isn't too sticky) you can always get a feather duster for non-sticky stuff.

Mike:

I think his pollen screen/filter/car-cover retractor isn't working at the moment. It is supposed to deploy from the front bumper at the first sign of pollen.

Take it to the dealer and complain
