my salt truck

[BLACKWRX]

for the last 2 or 3 weeks the temperature has not been over 30 degrees....and its been snowing and dusting an inch every few days, there is more salt on the road than total snow and it will probably snow a few more inches in the next few days

I feel bad for all you northern guys. Looks like it has been a pretty bad winter this year. Spring isn't too far away.

I lived up in northern Indiana for 18 years, so I can definately sympathize with you. All you can do is just keep on washing it off and hope for an early Spring.

washing it off wouldnt be a problem if it was above freezing....... what are you going to do?

I feel your pain..it might be about 32* tomorrow and I might just breakdown and go to a touchless wash...even self serve is too cold to do just above freezing

With all that snow, I thought you New York people could handle some winter.
I rinsed the salt crud off the van in a DIY that only had a door on one end yesterday.
The temperature was 16 at the time. The walls of the wash bay had about an inch or two of ice on them and the floor was slushy ice. If I had been doing any real washing, it wouldn't have been possible to even come close to anything acceptable. To knock off the crud and finish up at home in the garage wasn't too bad. I even drove home with the doors ajar so they wouldn't freeze shut.
