Once a year is a great plenty. All it does is remove everything all the way down to the clear coat. Soap residue, wax buildup and all the nasty stuff from the sky.

I wash my truck once a week and I wax about once every 3 months. Thats about when it stops beading up real good.

Default Wax
The reason I wax atleast every 3 months and wash weekly is that it add about 75hp worth of resistance reduction. I have even noticed about 4 10'ths in the quarter mile.
