Well I'll be damned! You should come up to NoVA and help me do mine! After we take the body molding off the sides of my truck of course.

Washed it since it feels great outside, too dark for pics. Oil change and maybe a wax tomorrow since I'm jealous of blackthundas beautiful truck lol

I've been inspired! Think I'll go out and knock off the icicles, snow/salt chunks.

I would've washed mine today but it didn't get quite warm enough to. I'm not washing it unless it's above 50 outside. Tomorrow the high is 58 so I'll hopefully do it then. I probably won't wax it though :/

Thanks and its Meguiars Black wax. I absolutely love it, this is my 3rd or 4th tube of the stuff. A little goes a very long way. I did the whole truck with 1/4th of the tube it comes in. They make a white wax too though, for people with white vehicles. I never used the white wax, but if it works as nice as the black wax I would definitely recommend it. I also clay bared it and used meguiars quick detailer (what comes with their clay bar kit) before I waxed it.

Yeah that sucks. I love the snow, but would have to drive a beater all winter. I miss it, but I'm glad I don't have to drive through it. Glad I could inspire you though!

If you're gonna remove anything from the side of your truck remove the giant sticker and the stick on fender vent if it's still on there
