It's a good thing I don't ever have my car washed. lol I know that would be what I would do. I would pick the one day of the week where it would rain, and my effort for a clean car would be lost. : ) So I let nature wash my vehicle. However, I've seen some people with cars where you can tell they've been riding over muddy roads or something. I mean the mud is from the wheels to the windshield. If my car ever got like that, I would definitely go to the car wash instead of waiting for nature to do it.

Suppose to storm here today so I did get away with a clean car for almost a week. I could stay home the next 2 days and keep my car in the garage but that's no fun! I have seen some of those cars and trucks too that were so dirty don't know how the driver could see where he/she was going. Thanks for responding.

Well this morning I water my strawberries and flowers and now this afternoon it is clouding up like it may start raining.

It seems like that happens to me all the time! Or I go out to the camper which is on a gravel road and it looks like I haven't washed it in a year! Inside the campgrounds however the roads are oiled to keep the dust down. It's the county roads that are a killer.

Sadly, I haven't had $ to get it washed much in the last couple of years. Wish we had an outside hose or a hose that could attach to a kitchen sink, esp. today, it's soooo hot out.

You know, you just reminded me of why we've had such a dry summer here: I haven't washed my car!
We've had MAYBE a tiny bit over an inch of rain all summer long. This is the driest summer I can remember. I've had thoughts of hiring a rainmaker or even having the clouds seeded with whatever it is that makes them rain but I haven't once thought of washing my car. I've been too concerned about wasting water since we have a well.
I think I'm going to go out now and wash it. That'll guarantee rain!
So, in answer to your question, yes, normally I hate it when it rains right after washing the car but, right now, I'll do a happy dance if it rains.

My great grandmother was full blooded Cherokee indian so maybe I need to find you and do a rain dance in your front yard. Guess I should be happy the car stayed clean for a few days. Dry here too this past month. We need the rain.
Have a good day,
