BG06SILVERADO Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 ok so this was yesterday but i got the truck all nice and shiny(clean). Around 9 or 10 last night is started pooring, and i mean POOORRRIIINNGGGG. it rained all night until about 6 or 7 this morning. Funny thing is the truck is still clean execpt where the road crap splashedup on the truck. So i ask the question Has this happened to you? (I'm sure it might have.)

black00chev Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 Story of my life with this truck... We live around trees so that makes it worse, leaves stick all over it and the pollen sucks too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wody Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 na. i check the forecast before hand. even if it did happen to rain on my parade, the place i take my truck to has a rain warranty covers the wash for two days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooter3 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 I always watch the forcast. If there is even a slight chance that it will rain the truck stays in the garage and I take the wifes ride. She could care less what her truck looks like. I think my truck has seen rain twice in it's lifetime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike1booth Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 in the summer it ONLY rains when i wash mine, like a rain dance or sumthing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmf21209 Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 even if I know it's gonna rain I'll still wash it, cant stand the dirt waterspots after it rains... Then all I'll have to do after it's done raining is take it down to a local car wash and spray it off real quick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NTMD8R_SS Posted October 6, 2008 Report Share Posted October 6, 2008 It's happened to me before, but i really want a truck cover because i park the truck next to the garden/dirt and it gets dusty quick and i also hate when i wash it and my neighboor/ or we cut the grass and it flies all over the truck.

Over the next 6 months I will be washing mine 1 to 2 times a week on average. That's the norm around these parts. Actually more like year round Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hrtbeat1 Posted October 7, 2008 Report Share Posted October 7, 2008 It seems to happen to me all the time. Just spent all day Saturday cleaning, claybaring, and waxing. Monday evening guess what .... RAIN!!! It hasn't rained in two weeks. I would bet that I could cure a drought, just go and wash the truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
