Mud...Josiah
 
Hey Josiah, you have an 04 series F150, so I was just wondering. How the heck do you get mud out from under your truck. Heck today I was out in the desert outside Las Vegas, and it had rained for about two days. So the mud was very plentiful. I got my new 06 Lariat broken in well today. But I spent 15 bucks in quarters at the car wash getting all the caked on mud from under my truck. Do you 04-06 series guys have a secret? Man I had fun but geez what a pita to get 'er clean! These trucks are big, ya know what I mean?

Happy mudding everyone!

When mud is real bad, I'll use a sprinkler underneath the truck. I'll move it around every half an hour until I get the bottom soaked and than go at it with the pressure washer. Its simply a lot of work since theres so many crevices dirt and mud can hide. Good luck! :beers:

Do what thumper said..

Its makes it alot easier to clean the mud from underneath when you have a lifted truck, but it's still a PITA..

A preventative method for keeping mud off is get some Johnson's baby oil and start spraying the undercarriage down before you hit the mud. Makes it 10 times easier to clean afterwards.

This is actually a good idea, you can use cooking spray, or silicone tire dressing, just don't get it on the paint, a little won't hurt though. :thumbsup:

Use a tarp on your underbody, watch exhaust as it will melt the tarp.

A garden hose and some safety glasses. I try to stay away from the mud in the winter as it is very cold during the winter and rolling around in a mud puddle under my truck isn't high on my list.

I have one of those tractor type lawn sprinklers. The type that will follow the hose. I run it from bumper to bumper pointed up. Works very well and you don't have to move it.
