How the Wrong Color Car Is
Costing You Hours & Dollars.

Family Hack's Urban Assault Vehicle

I’ve washed our car once in the last 3 years. It didn’t make any difference so I stopped. It turns out, we stumbled upon the holy grail of all car paint colors…”dirt”. Ok, technically, it’s called “Sahara Sand” but that’s just some marketing asshole’s name for “dirt”.

We owned the car for about a year when I began feeling guilty that I hadn’t washed it. I took it to the nearest car wash, spent $10.00 and an hour getting it cleaned up and no one noticed…not even me.

The lesson here is I bought a dirt colored car and accidentally found out it NEVER needs to be washed. It always looks the same…pretty good.

Granted, it’s not the sexiest beast on the road. But, I want to dry hump it every time I think of the hours and dollars it has saved me. Now, I just squeegee the windows when I fill it up with gas. That’s it…I’m done.
