What affects your score?

Five factors that drive your Vehicle Care Score up or down

📅

Days since last wash

High impact

The primary driver. Score decays each day you go without a wash. The fresher the wash, the higher the base score.

🔥

Wash streak

Medium impact

Consistent weekly washing builds a streak. Longer streaks add a score bonus and earn extra Sudsy Points.

⛈️

Weather events

Medium impact

Dust storms, rain, and pollen events in your market add automatic penalties. Washing after a weather event restores full score.

📊

30-day wash frequency

Medium impact

How many times you've washed in the last 30 days. Higher frequency = higher sustained score.

🔄

Vehicle type

Low impact

Certain vehicles (trucks, off-road) may decay slightly faster due to typical exposure and use patterns.

Frequently asked questions

Does the score reset?

No. Your Vehicle Care Score is a live reflection of your current vehicle state. Log a wash anytime to immediately boost it.

Can I have multiple vehicle scores?

Yes — each vehicle you add to WhichWash gets its own independent score. Add your whole garage and track each one separately.

How does weather affect the score?

We track major weather events in your market (dust storms, heavy rain, high pollen) and apply automatic score penalties when your vehicle is exposed. Washing immediately after restores your score.

Is the score visible to others?

Your score is private by default. You can choose to share your profile publicly from within the app settings.

Score high, earn more

High Vehicle Care Scores earn bonus Sudsy Points and exclusive badges like SUV Champion and EV Detailer.
