The other thing is the thought that the moment I leave my driveway it will not look as good, after I wash it.

I do plan on cleaning it once a week, not a full wax/detailing, but a quick clean, will this be enough?
Black is hardest color to maintain, but damn does it look great when its clean!
i used to wash my car at least once a week in the summer, and just kept a microfiber cloth in my car to keep off any dust that settled. In NY, (I guess its pollen?) little tiny yellow specs used to land on my car during the summer, so a simple wipe with a microfiber was plenty to keep the car shinin'.
I'll tell ya, with TX's summers, black will probably kill you, lol. I mean black in NY is still bad enough, and the A/C takes much longer to cool the inside of your car.
