I used to wash the old man's truck every Friday night after work. IMO its critical to wash regularly, especially in winter. Keeps stuff from corroding up and rotting. Any one of his trucks after 5 years in winter salt and de-icing crap there wasn't so much as a rust pit or flaking anywhere on the diff housings.

I’ve traditionally done every other week. I had gone to every 3 weeks lately but it’s just got enough. Going back to bi weekly.
Some people do what looks to be every other year but that’s just not me. Too much pride in my ride.blacklabel, bzinger, bryan21384 and 1 other person Thank this. -
Mine goes months without being washed. But its a work truck and is always getting dirty on jobsites or offroad...personal preference in my opinion. Some guys like it real shiny . Some companies like tmc and western dist. make u get one every 2 weeks or so.

Every week year round, winter time 2 times a week sometimes. Keep the brighter away from it I don’t use streakin beakin. But then I am really anal about all aspects of my truck and trailer inside and out

Every week if you can , at least I do if the line at the beacon isn't to long. In the winter time for sure , the salt and moisture do a number on the undercarriage.
