Mine has been for almost 2 days. I just can't find the time to get it done. Is it bad for it?
It does look pretty BA though.

until it rains.
i'm confused by people that always wash and wax their jeeps. in the 3 years i've owned mine, i've washed it like 4 times. and taken it to a carwash like twice. one time they yelled at me after the guy drove it in cuz it was all muddy.
but like brian said, to each their own.

i'll clean underneath sometimes, helps to prevent rust. the only time mines been waxed is when the dealer washed/waxed it for me when i bought it haha.

Do you hear banjos?
I like to keep mine clean. It allows me to spot issues as they arise, rather than when. I pretty much go directly to the car wash once home from a trip. It is also part of the gig, in order to not cross-contaminate vegetation per Tread Lightly.

washing is just like any other maintenance
if you don't do it it will cut the life of you jeep
think about it mud and gunk just gives rust a head start
