			Gotta be honest I've fully washed my 4Runner maybe twice in the two and a half years I've owned it so I'm pretty sure it'll survive to the end of the summer. Or next summer, lol.

 |  From my understanding you can water your plants. You just can't use the automated/manual sprinklers.   
"Hand watering of trees, shrubs, flowers, decorative planters and vegetable gardens using a spring-loaded shutoff nozzle, containers or a drip irrigation system is permitted. "

	   |  How are you guys washing your cars with the stage 3?  
 
			
			I just cleaned the car for $3 at a wand wash place.  Car is all clean. LOL. 
 I had part of my car XPEL wrapped by a local detailer so I can clean that part with just a wet towel. If I create any fine scratches it self heals within 30 minutes. The rest of the car has a hard ceramic coating so not much will stick to it. Perfect for quick pressure washes.

			Thankfully I managed to wax both cars right before stage 3 went in, so every few weeks I've just been taking them to a wand wash. 
Never using the brush of course, just a soak with the wash soap, then a rinse.  Actually does a decent job.  
My black car on the other hand...    
She needs a proper wash.  The rinse method just ain't cuttin' it lol.  
But even when we get rain, it's gonna take a while before the stage 3 is lifted.  It's been dry for so long, we have a lot of catching up to do lol.
