Getting the chance to use the Semi size Guinness world record wipers is a real honor. Take it. It’s yours!

You should start listening to:
The temptation: I wish it would rain now

instead of:
Creedence Clearwater Revival: Who will stop the rain :geek:
It's like the Alice in Chains song that says "I think it's gonna rain when I die" but instead "I think I'm gonna die when it rains."

We've had ours for 6 months and put over 11k miles on it. I've washed it twice. The stainless looks just fine with some dirt and spots on it. It's a truck. A really tough truck at that.

I know everyone is different but, personally, I don't really care to expend much mental energy on keeping a material object pristine. I'm not saying I don't care at all about it, but over the years I've come to realize it's not worth wasting so much energy on keeping a vehicle super clean.

I try not leave the house if it’s going to rain or after a rain . Keeping the water spots off is such asss. Every time it rains i have to fully wash the truck and windex it . My son’s mom needs to goto the dr this afternoon and she will just usually take the truck. I’ve had to write and rewrite the text three times because I feel retarded saying. I’d rather her not because of the rain lol
Congrats, you're a female!

I now love the rain! I cleaned my CT well with BKF and Windex and then coated it with 8 yr ceramic and it looks great. When it gets super dirty and rains, the rain washes it off and it looks great again. Bugs come off of the front with a microfiber cloth and water. I am very happy with the ceramic results!

Vehicles...get dirty when it rains. Maybe you just never had a vehicle that you cared to keep clean before?

Tesla swapped out the driver's side rear sail panel (glue issue). Now I have one bright shiny section of truck that doesn't match the rest.

Solution? Perhaps wash the rest of the truck?

Hell no. The correct answer is to hit more of the muddy spots with the left side tires when in the bush and blend the grime. Which is what I'm doing. It's getting better, but still has a way to go. ?

DIY ceramic coat. Just do the hood as a test panel and see the difference after a rain drive.

I wash mine once a week and it always seems to rain the next day. I use Bar keep on mine once a month with a car polisher. It makes it give it a little more shine each time. But makes it really easy to clean up any spots on it. I got the Contrails replaced a week ago along with the extra slat on the tonneau cover. and now it does not match. Need to buff those now. but parked next to another new CT and mine shines more and seems to look cleaner.
