The real question is how much do looks affect you and how much do you use it.
I bought a TT 2 1/2 years ago it is always dirty because I have towed it over 21,000 miles.
I wash it and wax it twice a year with soap and water and Mother wash and wax polish. I looks great for the few weeks it sits at home between trips.
The roof is nasty because it is a light weight and cannot be walked on. You have to wash it from a ladder on the side. That does not get done very often.
We bought it used (3 years old) with a five year plan to travel. Given the mileage I plan to put on it and fact that resale values drop like a stone, I will not be worth much more if I keep it shiny.
