You don't wash that, you hose it off - probably one of those wand carwashes... after dark, after everyone's seen the mud caked 6"+

I drive a 4x4 for work and leave it permanently caked in mud just to make the point that it's not used for dropping brats off at school and picking up milk from the store.

I used to drive one of these in the Army and after swimming rivers with it and climbing mud hills it has mud caked in so bad in areas that you have to use a steel chisel bar to remove it. Luckily as the driver I was in charge and had others on the team that had to come help me clean the vehicle after being out in the field with it for weeks. M113 Armored Personnel Carrier

I don't think I'd be concerned with muddy boots in that one

I'm glad you all enjoy the photo. A friend of mine was filming me when I went into that hole not realizing how deep it was. I paniked and mashed the gas and came flying out by pure luck. But I got a write-up in their local paper along with the picture, so I had to pretend that I planned the whole thing.
As far as the wife goes, she refuses to wash it and complains all the time about how much money I spend on it. The only time she goes off-road is when she's trying to put on lipstick.
