Gas Station Car Wash = No Way
Car Wash Facility with a pull through system = Maybe - hit and miss.
Hand Wash = The best option

I used a local Car Wash place and they did a good job, I had them test the truck by walking through the tunnel with the truck with no waterworks of course.
With the size of this truck, I found myself re-detailing after the wash, so now, I just do it all myself.

Find a car wash that has a SINGLE track! Most work fine for stock wheel offset. However, after getting Methods and Toyos - it bound up the machine when I was pulled through the wheel cleaning section. I was told "You no come back. Broke chain".

If it has one track (usually the left side) there should be no problem with the wheel width.

I always look for a "We wash Duallys" sign out front.

Or like someone said before ask.

With three years of Raptor out there, people know if someone has washed a Raptor there before.

Hey guys, I have the question.

I'm going to buy Ford Raptor because my word needs me to ride a countryside roads, but my friend considering me to by this Ford GranTurismo Tuning Ford f-series (12th generation) 6.4 650hp, 2010 year, automatic transmission, all wheel drive | American Auto Tuning - Best cars

What can you advise me for the countryside roads?


F-350 will be rough on rough roads. Raptor has softer suspension and will soak up the rough stuff better.
