Same here. Occasionally I will clay and then polish it, but very infrequently.

yep..I wash mine 2-3 times a week..and polish monthly or frequent depending on the paints condition..in summer season its not important you park under a tree or not, the resin from the trees come with the wind and the small diesel spills and tar from the road stick to the paint and if you dont clean them they slowly drill the paint >:(
