I started at 3:45pm and just finished at 9pm.

The funny thing is, i didn't even get to my dash yet So far i completely washed my undercarriage, the jeep itself, engine bay, and my radiator.

I've only washed my jeep once in almost two years not counting a couple times through a laser wash, so I don't really remember how long it took. I am sure it didn't take me over 5 hours though.

Well, i have to take my Jeep to dealer tomorrow, and i don't want them to have any excuses to refuse my warranty. Other than that, i only wash it in mud/water holes

just depends on how long the rain we get every couple of months lasts.

I have a power washer, so it takes me around 20 minutes to clean the Jeep inside and out.

I have only washed my jeep once in a year and a half. I don't go mudding so I think it looks fine. Thats why I bought silver. Always looks clean.

I have a great hand car wash near my house. Takes them about 15 minutes and $20.00 to do the whole thing.
