I am surprised that nobody has mentioned the Mr. Clean "AutoDry" system. It seems to maintain the car beautifully with a gizmo that attaches to your hose. The first setting wets the car, the second setting applies a special wash/wax. You use a mitt to loosen the dirt then rinse it off. The final step is spraying the car with a fine mist that goes through a filter in the gizmo. The filter takes out every trace of mineral in the water and causes the water to sheet off without leaving a spot. I love this system!
One thing I do once a year, though, is put on a sealer/polish like Turtle Wax "Shining Armour" (dealer paint sealant) or something similar.
