Warm weather = washing time
With the record warm weather we had here in Southern Ontario this weekend, I got the opportunity to get out and hand wash the Pat (and my van), vacuum and do an interior detail.
It was amazing. Great to get all that salt and road grime off, that touchless washes can't do. I don't think I ever remember being able to do this in January. Now I need another warm day to install my Mopar moulded mud flaps I got at Christmas. Any one else get the Jeep washed this weekend?

No, but washed it last week. Anytime I can, high 20's and sun, or above 32, I wash it.

I cleaned the interior yesterday( 40 degrees ). My hose/outside water is off from Nov - April so I have to use the TF car wash regardless of the temp.

It was around 72 degrees in South Carolina Yesterday and perfect weather to wash the jeep. I decided to check the weather before I did it and notice its going to be raining the next three days.. So i decided not to waste my time.

I spent four hours washing the Jeep last weekend. If I can't wash it due to bad weather, I still clean it inside weekly.

I was off from work yesterday and got a chance to turn the water on, hook up the hose and give the jeep a wash, it rained today but my jeep is still cleaner than it was. Way worth it!

Sorry for being a newb, but, I was just curious, ever since I bought my car 2 months ago, I haven't had a chance to wash it by hand. I would like to send it through an automatic car wash, but my question is... Should I unscrew the antenna?

Sleet, and then snow on top this morning for my commute, and 26 degrees. But supposed to go above freezing today, so will wash the Jeep after work and get the salt off.
