my thing is i love to have a clean car.. but literally it rains 2-3 days a week here so i put in all this hard week and within 2-3 the car looks like it hasn't been washed in 2 weeks and i dont have a garage to keep her in so i usually wait for a good forecast n then ill decide to wash

I'd love to keep mine spotless all the time, but in Boston during the winter it's just not gonna happen (unless you can take it off the road for the winter, which I'd love to do if I had either a place to store it or another car to drive). I've been trying to keep it off the road and in my driveway as much as possible this winter, I drive my wife's Eurovan as much as I can. What a difference!
Regardless, my car is filthy and there's not a whole lot I can do about it (regardless of my penchant for organization, timeliness and general cleanliness) |

With owning a business, having a wife, 3 children and a 4-floor house, it's impossible to keep up with everything... -My clients get great 'clean' service -I'm usually home every evening so I see my wife and kids daily -My house is impeccable... The car is the first thing that's left over ... I need to wash it now, I know, but december is always extremely busy for me. So far for your correlation ... PS: have you been able to calculate the R-square, and have you checked for multicollinearity? Were the residuals normally distributed (maybe you need to log-transform your dependent variable) and can you exclude heteroscedasticity? Furthermore, I advice you to run partial residual plots on all independent variables to make sure all correlations are linear. If not, include squared error terms or interaction effects... edit: OK, maybe there is a correlation.... I might just be an outlier... Last edited by Erik219; 12-09-2009 at 12:50 AM..

i'm going to post pics after tomorrow's blizzard. right now, my monaco 1er is grey thanks to our week of snow/rain, and tomorrow it will make the full move to white
interior is impeccably clean, however, save for the rubber floor mats (which are doing their jobs). |

Mine has been sitting in the garage with a flat tyre for the past week. I finally took it out the other day and gave it a really nice clean after a busy 6 weeks or so, the longest it's ever been. I'm looking forward to getting my new rubber from tirerack.

regardless of how dirty your car gets, it's a good idea to have it washed regularly to remove contaminents from paint and wheels so they dont dig in.
