Finally did it, today was my first time through a car wash. I can gladly report no damage. As a reference, I went with a newer built car wash with the conveyor belt. Word to the wise, fold in your side mirrors. I did before I entered, but noticed it was a tight squeeze and think the mirrors might of scraped if not folded. Thanks for everyone's advice. Much appreciated. It sure feel nice driving a freshly cleaned Raptor.

I find the local HS Cheerleaders in skimpy outfits raising money for the ice hockey team by washing cars, just like the wash in Cool Hand Luke and I just stand by and watch. Lucille.

Just took delivery of my 37 Raptor, went through a car wash and fit no problem but did notice micro scratches in the decal in the rear quarter. I probably will not use the same car wash again...

Tried to get a car wash yesterday as I live in Jersey and it’s still too cold to be hand washing it.

Went to 3 different car washes in my area and they all turned me away. Said the truck is too big.

37 package truck with 1.5” rpg perch collars and aftermarket wheels which makes it a bit wider (-13 offset)

Same here. I have found (2) local, within 10 miles I never knew existed that are Touch-less. Pull in and it high pressure washes all around. Cheap too! $10. I have it ceramic coated and it looks like I spent 2 hrs washing it after a 5 min cycle. Looks like this.

Nah ya'll let that man run his new 100,000 dollar G3 through an automated hand wash.

Please report back them swirls, broken mirror, bent exhaust, and keep the complaints to yourself.

Don't live in a huge town, so pretty much one franchise with multiple locations here. Rolled up to it yesterday and was turned away. F###!
