Default How often do you wash your truck?

I have been seeing alot of threads on cleaning your trucks on various forums and wondered how often you all wash your truck. Mine hasnt been washed in 7 months (seriously)

Once a week usually, sometimes once every two weeks if it's not that dirty. Over the summer it has gone about a month without being washed. Its kinda hard to do working 70-80 hours a week and since I have to drive down dirt roads to work its kind of pointless. I try to wax it once every couple of months.

When the weather is warm, I go 2 weeks maximum between washes. In the winter, when ever I can. Sometimes its a month or two between.

Fits for me. That's what it takes to have it right.

Not often enough here. It seems kind of retarded to wash your truck when its going to rain, snow or salt trucks are out for 5 months straight.
I will pull it into a self wash high pressure place just to blow all the crud off maybe once a month.
