I never clean mine or have bothered fixing panel damages and paint scrapes. But I take the time to oil and fluid change every 5000 kms lol
It wasn’t made to be pretty, it was made to be reliable and capable.

Oddly enough the only time I was heckled about driving a 4x4 in a city was when it was clean.
If I left the mud splatter on the wheel arches I never got heckled.

Because you’re not, in fact, a pavement princess.
If I wash the mud off my truck I’m a pavement princess in the eyes of the public for the duration of the trip from the car wash back to the garage.

If you don’t “look the part” then people will judge harshly regardless of how (in)capable you are at something.
Goes for a lot of things in life.

I don’t wear a black hoodie to indicate that I know computer stuff, but it is remarkable how much more receptive non-techies are when I wear one. It’s like a lab coat for computer doctors.
