I bet I have the dirtiest car!

And it's 32 degrees and raining today. Last week it was 37 degrees and snowing. Go figure. And this doesn't even do it justice!

Mine was pretty dirty up until this morning.

We had freezing rain when I was driving into work and now plain old rain is coming down like an S-O-B so it should wash off most of the ROAD SALT.

Funny, i figured most folks would be bragging about a clean, freshly Zaino'd car.

That's some serious road salt you got there GTO. I washed and waxed mine on Sunday and today it's rainy like crazy, and tomorrow it's supposed to clear up a little. I hate that!

Won't stop me from driving though.

Wow soopa, you beat to my last post and now that i've seen your car...i'd have to say you and GTO are pretty well matched.

Time for the buckets of warm water from the kitchen spicket.

That is a line of salt - he had salt, car got wet and he's got a line.

Has our car got a lame wiper fluid reservoir or what! I swear it must be a quart! My VW would hold 1/2 gallon.

I don't know Adam but I think you may have me beat! I think we should get all the CA, TX and FL folks to send us money for car washes! Mail to:

Pequannock, NJ 07440



You are right about the salt line from the rear window to the rear down the body crease. You should see the hood. I got it washed and knocked the big chunks off but it rained again today.

I don't care, I'm in Orlando until Friday then on to New Orleans! Woo hoo

Actually, after the rain cleared in the early afternoon it got up to the mid 50s here today and clear blue skies. Probably the warmest day since October. Tomorrow is supposed to be more of the same.

Yes, the temp went above 50F today in Eastern Pa.
I think this was the first day since early December that I drove home from work with the seat heater switch OFF.

I'm sure there are some people here from the warmer climates thinking to themselves... "Hmmm, 50 degrees and turning off the seat warmers? I have them on the moment the temp drops below 60."

I walked outside around 2:30 this afternoon and was thinking it was time to break out the summer clothes when the temp got over 50.
