My hose runs from my kitchen sink to my car parked 15ft to 20 ft away. The freezing isn't an issue for me there. We also get lots of days over 40 degrees where I live in southern most Maine. Ideally finding a place to wash it in doors is best.
I agree on some extra protection on the front. Two things about matte finishes. One, they don't scratch as easy as a gloss finish. They are NOTa lot tougher to scratch but a little tougher to scratch. Two, small scratches are a lot less noticeable because of the way light refracts off of the matte finish. Sadly any major scratched and you are screwed. Usually requires a repaint on the panel and even with the best color matching it may still be noticeable.
Both these statements are completely false!!!
"People like to say matte scratches more easily than glossy, but that’s not exactly true! In fact, the rampant micro-marring you often see from poor wash technique is almost never seen on matte paint. Matte paint isn’t scratch-proof, obviously, but you’ll likely never have issues with wash marks at the very least."

Maybe at this point we are just playing semantics. I do agree that that "normal scratches" are bad and an excellent reason why someone shouldn't get a car with a matte finish. But when I said small scratches I meant minor scratches like swirl marks like I posted from that link. I posted the link to clarify what I meant. I wasn't wrong you just misunderstood. I should have been more clear on my original post.^ What's your point? Both your statements are still false.
I know how to post links too !
Car Paint Problems: 5 Things to Know about Matte Painted Cars [VIDEO]
Matte finish is a rising trend in the automotive world - different from gloss finish. Here are 5 car paint problems to anticipate you.
it's also illegal in many places to wash your car in a paved driveway, which is something to consider/research even if one is thinking "I'll just wash it myself by hand".
You are correct. It's partly my fault. I apologize.
The new 2021 SQ5 is a good bit quicker than both at 4.7 sec. Same HP as the old one, but better gearing. I wonder if the Genesis could have had a better gearing or shifting re-map. It has enough power to be faster than it is.0-60 in 4.9 isn't bad. That's faster than the SQ5 which did it in 5.1.

We never thought high-performance crossovers would be so common . . . or so good.www.caranddriver.com
Head of marketing is a female. Obvious who the target audience is, but yea, MNF? Also recently saw a new commercial for the QX60. Same target audience. Could be Genesis know what they are doing. Spouse is in love with "her" GV70.
