If we are traveling every day, my routine is when we stop for the night and get set up, the wife starts dinner and I get the step ladder out and wash the front end with just a bucket of water and a sponge and towel it dry. No hose needed. This gets rid of the bugs for the next day's travel. If the RV park has a place and allows washing of RV's, I might just take them up on it. During the rest of the year my MH gets driven from storage and washed every thirty days. Stays pretty clean that way. Takes about 1 1/2 hours for me.
