I normally hand wash it. I've taken it to a few touchless car washes. When I had my oil and diff fluid changed last week, they throw in a free carwash, but my car is too low. So they hand washed it for $10. But I'll normally do it myself.

I take it to one of those self serve car washes and use the spray guns (never the brushes) to wash the car. I used to take it to an 100% hand car wash.

Always hand wash, unless they salt the roads in the winter because it might snow... then I'll take it through a touchless wash just to rinse it off. One or two times per year max though.

Hand wash always and I never use soap of any kind except to clean inside my wheel wells.
