Some dirty vehicles on the road today!

I was driving down 880 and I noticed a few cars that looked as if they've gotten dunked with mud. A minivan and an Infiniti G35, completely caked in dirt. I didn't think much of it. Then after I ate at the new taco joint over at Industrial, heading up 880, I noticed a rig with a rack of cars that were just as dirty. Did a mudslide happen at some well populated area or something? I heard of some parts of So Cal getting mudslides. o_O

Come to think of it, I saw a H2 at lunch today with dirt sprayed all the way up its side, and those things are pretty high off the ground.

No one washed their cars after hitting Tahoe over the long weekend is my bet I washed mine even though it's probably going to rain soon.. I couldn't stand it looking brown and crusty

Ah, I guess that made it apparent who was in So Cal lately. Especially if I saw a new G35 covered in dirt like that since I'd assume someone would wash their car unless they had absolutely no time to if it happened that recently. I also saw a white 4Runner with huge streaks of mud on the side too.

My car is covered with dirt so much you can't tell its white anymore. I was in tahoe thursday to tuesday and I haven't had time to wash it yet.

It's winter. Cars get dirty. Imagine that.
