I like to keep my car clean inside and out. Once a week I clean the car, usually on Friday or Saturday evening. I don?t spend hours on the car, usually I can do everything in less than an hour including hand washing the exterior, wiping down the interior, conditioning the leather, cleaning the glass and vacuuming the carpet. I?ve done it so many times it has become second nature. The car is a 2006 Lincoln LS V8 with 40k miles; it still looks, smells, feels and drives like new. Sometimes if I am lazy I sneak in a trip to the wash bay to use the pressure washer ? never the brush though.
I actually find my weekly cleaning ritual to be very relaxing. Also, after a stressful day at work it?s really nice to walk out to a nice clean car and have a relaxing drive home.
