We had a kid a couple of years ago that could make a truck look good, but since then it's been hit and miss. We have a young guy working part time in the shop now, that learned from his grandpa, that is good at diagnosing and fixing things, but he doesn't have time to wash and polish.

When I was driving my '71 9500, I always had a bottle of wax and some clean rags with me. Many times when I had a reasonable chance and the truck was clean enough to take it, I would be out there waxing it. Usually while waiting for loads or sometimes while being loaded at different places that I would pick up at. Strangely though, some people would frown upon it. Whether it was jealousy, envy, or whatever, lol, depending on where I was picking up at.
