I don’t care about washing my car. I care that they’re moderating our car washing while allowing foreign businessmen to use as much water as they want on hay that gets exported. And that could be fine if they were doing it in the Mid West. No, they’re doing it in Phoenix, Arizona. A region that knows it’s counting down to a zero day.
So while I’m not washing my car, they shouldn’t be watering those crops.
Not washing cars results in long term damage to the car. If you have a 200k mile shitbox with peeling clear coat, sure, you don’t need to wash it because it probably won’t matter.
If you have something nice with good paint, washing is an important maintenance item
This person is talking about being from the desert, so yeah, no sympathy here. The Fremen could figure out that water shouldn’t be wasted when it’s scarce.
The US massively overuses cars. You can absolutely afford to not wash your car.
If you wash a car it uses less fuel. Dirt makes cars less aerodynamic.
We can do both.
You can just… not wash your car. It literally doesn’t matter. If water rationing is in effect, washing your car should be the least of your concerns.

If you don’t wash your car and you’ll get corrosion from the salt on the road. If you live where it snows of course.

To be fair it’s not usually the places with snow putting these bans in.
If the cars are overused that means they require more maintenance, not less. I want walkable places but that’s not the argument to make lol
