I won't subject my car to photos when it's dirty. But I have been able to wash my car once a week but the second I drive the car it gets covered with salt dust. Don't know if it's because of the snow tires being super sticky or just the aerodynamics of the Stang, but all of the dust collects on the back. So as long there is salt on the roads my car will be dirty.

Mine has never really been real dirty. But it does lOok rather beat up and have a bit of dried mud on him. But that was before I cleaned him today. Lol. So to answer your question, never more dirty then a bit of dried mud on the tires...

There is salt all over the paint thanks to the 2 snow storms we've gotten the past 2 days. We got an inch friday and it was spotless before hand, unfortunately I had to drive it in the snow since I work for a landscaping company. Then we got hit with that nasty storm last night, 3 inches of snow, freezing rain following, then rain following that. Had to be at work by midnight last night, which was fun, when we finished at 8:30 this morning the road was slush, so I would imagine its pretty dirty. Supposed to be nice tomorrow so I'll try to get it washed tomorrow or wednesday. Not a point now, and I'm not driving anywhere currently since I haven't gotten any rest in over a day. I hate my car being dirty it makes me feel like I don't love my car.

It's not too bad, It is sitting in the parking lot with a little light snow on it, but I don't take it on the roads with the salt out

That's what the Camaro is for.

The Camaro is a little filthy. But since all the moisture this morning, a lot of the powdery salt has come off

The Monte is clean and sitting covered in the garage right now.

However, here's mine TWO winters ago, a couple months after I bought the car (my last year commuting back and forth to school). Hasn't seen salt or snow since then.

My baby is in the barn safe and sound. no salt for him! But my truck on the other hand is quite filthy! But I'm leaving it dirty because I don't care! Lmao! had to haul 200 bales of hay with it and my trailer last night in the freezing rain, so it's covered in ice with a nice layer of tan dirt underneath!

The freezing rain last night, and the slight thaw this morning helped to wash some of the salt off my Monte.
