car wash in the winter

Car wash in the winter?=Bad idea as it melts the salt thats up in all those little hard to reach places and melted salt starts getting active again causing rust,also water will accumulate within body panels and when it turns to ice it will expand and cause numerous future rattles and squeaks,also if its cold enough when you drive away all your weather stripping around the doors freezes which could be damaged when opening a door,door locks can freeze up basically locking you out of the car,and power windows can freeze putting risk to the little motors if you try to open a frozen window.On top of all that its expensive to get your car washed only to see it looking just as dirty an hour later.Unless you will see several weeks of dry weather i'd wait till spring.
