I was cleaning the 1,500 miles of vacation off the SHO and he wanted me to get his car out so he could clean it.

He also washed his tractor. He's 2.5 yrs old and spent almost 2 hours by himself cleaning the two. He had my wash jacket and a rag once I was done with it and went to town on the tractor. Not sure if he liked washing it or playing with the hose more. I wanted to use the hose on the Ferrari but I wouldn't let him. He even pretended to vacuum it out.

That's awesome!! My son is the same way
He also likes to get my jack out and lift his caterpillar dump truck up and "work on it"
He washes his truck every time I get the hose out also. 1500 miles, where did you go? I just drove to st Augustine Florida which was about 875 miles each way. I have a 9 month old also though, so we took the Honda Odyssey instead of the sho. When you go to the beach with a baby that van fills up quick.

You just gotta make sure the sponges and shammys stay off the ground. I should prob just buy him his own.

We went from SW Mich to south of Pittsburgh near the WVA and MD border. I also took a day trip back into Pittsburgh to meet up with friends for lunch one day.

Yeah, the SHO holds enough for a week staying in a furnished house and my sister brought her Odyssey full of kid toys which helped us bring less.

I need to start teaching him proper use of towels and sponges but that can wait, that is until he wants to help clean mine.

I live about 3-1/2 hours east of Pittsburgh, my son has helped me several times cleaning my mustang. Gotta keep an eye on that sponge, ruin the paint quickly
