I have driven through some pretty monster snow drifts up here at work before in some F-550 box trucks and have seen engine bays look like that. You would be surprised where snow will work it's way in when you start busting through snow drifts and powder LOL

They don't off of me, I have a pressure washer and usually was the DD's by hand unless weather is too crappy then I just blast them off. No doubt though the car washes will be packed this weekend, although its pouring rain right now so some will suffice with that.

I like the touchless car washes, that spray upward into the undercarriage as you pull in. Good to get the salt/debris off the rear end/suspension/ etc...

...nothing will ever work like the good ol' wash mitt and bucket for the paint though...
