Does anyone have any tips on an easy way to remove mud from the undercarriage of the X. I went off roading and picked up alot of mud. When it dried it was very difficult to remove. Also the buildup of dirt and debris on the inside of rims threw off the balance on my tires. Any suggestions...

I usually take mine to one of those do it yourself spray car washes and knock the big stuff off and spray out the radiator. I then take it to the drive through car wash and have them do a complete wash which includes undercarriage wash.

Parking your X over a sprinkler works pretty good too.

When I get mine really muddy, I go to the carwash on the way home. I have a pressure washer at home, but that sure makes a mess on my driveway. Worth spending a few bucks and leaving the mud at their carwash, IMHO.

I usually just drive up onto some logs or rocks in front of my house and hose it off real good. Driving it up on the rocks lets you get under there good and check it out. (I don't mean to actually crawl under though - just easier to get to with the hose)
