Pollen Haters???

I'm lucky my work has a car wash I can use to get all the pollen off. Unfortunately, my car gets covered again as soon as I get home.

I try to use my duster as much as possible but sometimes it gets to the point where it has to be washed.

Pollen does not really show up on my Pearl White. Rain spots don't show up either. My friend drives a black G35, and we have car wash parties and then go for a drive. When we get back his car is covered in dust. A freshly washed black car looks so sexy though!

Very light rain here today. Instead of washing the pollen off it's turning it into a nasty slurry of yellow and green.

Just to add insult to injury, just remember what pollen really is...a bunch of trees jerking off into to the air and their splooge landing your car...Trees are a$$holes!

Amen! I'm also a charter member of two other clubs that are rearing their ugly heads again for the season:

- The "People who mow their grass out into the road and just leave it there for me to drive thru"-Haters

and

- The "moron officepark groundskeepers who use string-trimmers and leaf blowers to clean the parking lot by blowing the grass/leaves/pollen/dirt/etc up onto the cars instead"-Haters

Uggh.

I have a black 370 so the lovely yellow pollen shows every single morning more and more. What I hate more than pollen....bird poop. I live at the beach and cringe every time a bird drops a crab or a dump on my car that stuff will ruin your clear coat fast because apparently the birds around here eat batteries.
