I washed my car today, here are my detailed steps...
Step 1: Take car to Ford for oil change to maintain warranty.
Step 2: Ask them nicely to wash it for free.
Step 3: Take clean car home.
I'm not fussed about the outside of my car really, I'll keep it clean but I'll fix it in future when it needs it....

Wait, if Ford doesn't change your oil it voids the warranty?

You know what, I really don't think it matters but it's a buddy that works down there so I just go down to talk to him lol. My normal warranty is long gone, I have a powertrain extended warranty until December (came with the car). I just go to hang out and drool over the new cars...

I usually take mine to Mr. Clean car wash in frisco. I see vipers, lambos, and other high class cars getting their shit washed their so I take my 25k dollar stang there too. And for detail I call Nick and pay him to do it.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.
