How much salt is on your cougar?

[HugNSmile1]

I don't have much.. but that is because I washed my car last Saturday when the temperature was 32.7 degrees F. My trunk is still frozen shut. :cry:

Today as I was going to work (raced an eclipse), I was at a stop light and saw two very salty cars. One was a celica and other crysteler (sp?). I thought they were the same color...until drove away.... one was black and the other was silver! But you could never tell with all the salt on their car!

My car is currently white. Solid white. And I can't wash it because it has been too cold. As soon as it warms up a bit, its getting washed.

BTW, its supposed to snow today... so its just going to get even saltier.

I took a road trip Sun to visit my friend at U of I and my car got sooo dirty from all the road crap. You can barely see any of the green paint! Also, it seems like the surrounding towns/cities by me decided to dump all of their salt reserves on the roads this past week or so. I mean, my car feels like it goes over speedbumps of salt like every 1/4 mile or so. I can't wait for the spring/summer!

mine was nice and clean until about 8 am this morning. now it looks like an enormous salt lick with wheels. i hate snow.

I drive a Vibrant White cat... and contrary to belief, white cars are extremely easy to keep clean, and don't show dirt as bad as other cars.

My car never gets plastered, regardless of weather I at least take it to the quarter car wash and spray it off, or i pay 4.95 to get it run through the local car wash (very good job they do too) and hand dried with tip for 5 bucks.


I'd say my back end is the spot that shows the worse though, and I have my car pretty whited out with the covers and grill, so it's all over after I'm done playing in the snow ;)

I handwashed my car Saturday morning cause it was nice out! So mine is nice and clean! (for now)

im one of the lucky ones to have a so called "winter car" so my cat is in hibernation in the garage. :)

used kia/hyundai, winter car? what?

Those 50 dollar off the side of road korean cars work wonders in the winter... they're disposable:)

my cougar doesn't have any salt on it.... ooh wait a minute my car is a contour... well that has ALOT of salt on it... and I think it has about as much snow stuck to the under body as it can handle.... stupid snow that was as deep as my clearance:mad:

actually its a '93 plymouth duster. not bad back in the day, but now its kickin over 100K so this might be her last winter. hope she makes it.

i got my car back today and it was fairly clean till a friend got honey mustard on the passenger side

My car now is officially clean, i love the local car wash so much, they do the BEST damn job around here... (right off Route 59)

But like weatherchannel.com in my area says snow thursday - monday.... so that means itll be a mess again and means some parking lot fun at 11 at night at the mall (ever slide and get out to see how far you did?:)) lol.

Oh well, the interior is an absolutely MESS, i have dirt and snow and salt all over, somehow i got dirt on my rear view mirror (i drive a friend and my lil brother to school, he doesnt get out of the back normally, he climbs over the seat when im not looking and i smack the **** out of him for it, but he gets crap ALL over.)

Ahh... winter blows, I want my windows DOWN. :( (I drove the other day with em down, it was 42 degrees out,clearly warm enoguh for them, i had my gloves on too ;))
