yeah, same here! brrrr... when we had 1 car we were trying to keep nice, I'd run it through a touchless car wash (with under spray) as soon as the roads were mostly cleared up (to not render the washing moot)... worked pretty well, though spent extra time in the dryer near wheels, and locks! prior to that, I had a few "surprising" moments with frozen brakes immediately after driving out of the wash!
the winter beater has enough loose trim + potential sun roof leak that I don't run it through even a touchless... once winter starts, it rarely warms up enough here to matter anyway...
what we do do religiously is oil spray both cars once a year. That makes a big difference (though it also makes them *very* messy to work on!)...
