This is no different from any other vehicle I have owned. This is not something new to the CT. I live in Houston and day trip a lot. It is very normal for me to wipe down the front bumper from bugs and grime. Also I like to inspect my cars/trucks after use by wiping them down. I do not do this...
When you road trip in the south there are plenty of bugs. Also wiping down a vehicle after a trip is a great way to inspect for any damage or possible problems resulting from the trip. Like Insaid, to each their own. Good luck with your CT, mine has been great so far. ?
I did not have to baby it, I chose to wipe it down just like any other of my cars or trucks I would have driven on that trip. To each their own on how they treat their vehicles.
I took delivery here in Texas. I drove my CT in the rain on several different days now with no issues. One weekend I was on a 5 hour road trip with 3 hours of it in the rain. Once I was back to my house I just wiped it down with a beach towel. That was 5 days ago, so far no orange spots.
Was supper excited to see an update pop up for download. Then saw the notes and no FSD. ?
Took 15 minutes to download and about 45 minutes to update. ?
