It can be hard to keep your car clean in the winter.

Even though there are things to love about winter, it can be terrible for cars. And we have had so many storms and downright deadly cold winter days that it has not really been easy to keep a car clean. But did you know you should actually protect your vehicle's exterior by keeping it clean in the winter?

How often should you wash your car in the winter?

Right now, there is a lot of salt and sand on Bismarck-Mandan roads to deal with all the ice and snow on the roads. And that stuff can be bad for your vehicle if you do not keep it clean. According to Quintessential Car Care, it is important to wash your car every two weeks in the winter. The website actually states, "For maximum effect, time your washes for the third day after a snowstorm, when there isn’t much salt on the road—so your car won’t be ruined as soon as you drive away from a wash."

If you want to keep your car clean in the winter, an unlimited wash pass is the way to go.

When I was younger, I never took care of my junker car and totally did not care if it was clean on the outside or not. It actually was not until I started leasing that I cared about the look of my vehicle. And that is when I discovered the beauty of carwash passes - I HIGHLY recommend unlimited wash passes. If you want to be serious about your car's care, you should look into an unlimited pass. That way, you can literally clean your car every day if you wanted. It is seriously glorious.
