Don’t want it to lock up on me from the local car wash.

(let the flaming begin)
Take your doors off, then the brakes won't engage when you hop out.

I am so glad girls like this exist... but it doesn't stop me from wondering about their level of introspection. Like imagine asking one of them what they do for a living and them answering anything short of "working up the courage to be a full blown stripper"

I think you can just buckle your seatbelt? I'm not sure though, I don't hate my jeep enough to put it through the punishment of those drive through carwashes...

Just put the t case in neutral and push her through. Then drain the AT fluid when your done and refill. Carwashes, Tow Companies and Dealers don't want you to know this simple trick.

I have never had a problem in a car wash. My stock Mojave now has a softopper, and Datin Fab rack. The rack has a Darche eclipse 270° awning, that extends about a foot past the tailgate. I was using the local no-touch carwash regularly, when I lived in Colorado. Looking for the same here in New Port Richey Fl. The spray arm never hit the awning. While it is not as good as hand washed, it is quick and easy. I also have a Chevy Colorado with 10’ pieces of strut bolted on the rack. No problems either.
That said, I’m sure a carwash with the spinning sponges would be completely trashed after one wash ?

I just leave it running in neutral with the key fob in the cup holder, and she rolls right through, no muss, no fuss.

Take it to car wash, soap down real well. Use microfiber or sponge and wipe down your Gladiator. Gladdys are a quick rub down, not many curves. I’m done within 20 minutes and got a clean ride
