Recommended shampoo?

What do you guys recommend? I just got a blue slate g37s and I'm not sure If there are better or worse brands to use.
If you're wondering why I dont just use my previous shampoo its because im away at college. Thanks.

"Conditioner is better"

Slate is an easy color to keep clean so anything you pick up will do the job.

yeah i had a feeling BS would be a pretty easy color to maintain. Picked up some hard water marks over the past 2 days and i want to wash them off before they do any damage.
do you guys have anything against those diy carwashes? the ones where you just park, put money in the machine and it gives you so much time to use the water hose thing?
