I'm lucky that my man is a detailer on the side, so he does my car and he does it to the 9's every other week

It was made to clean RV's in campsites that don't allow the run-off. You can pretty much wash your whole exterior in your garage with the door closed and not get any excess water anywhere.

I used it when I was freezing my ass off in Dallas in the winter because I had a black car.

That would still be illegal here, it's about what you're doing with the water rather than how much of it you use. The exception is if you have a non mains water source such as a rainwater tank, but that's probably not the best thing to be washing your car with... LOL

(Thought: if it really does only need a gallon then some enterprising young lad could package this product together with a bottle of water...)

I was in a hurry once and took my DD to a LaserWash (automated brushless wash) on my way out of town and will never do that again. Turns out convertibles and high pressure automated washes don't play well together (unless you were really hoping to take a shower during the wash)

I never wash my truck. It's a 4x4 and never gets washed. It's a waste of water.

I do however wash my motorcycles.

Oh wow that blows then. I'm sure someone could package the whole thing together, and even with a spray bottle and a gallon of water it would only raise the actual price about $4 if you paid full price for the QEW.

Yep, we wash both of ours. I like doing it myself, even if it takes a couple of hours to detail. I guess it's the satisfaction I get from it that keeps me doing it myself.

not a bad deal, do all dealerships do that?

I wash my own car occassionally, for the most part I take it to a hand wash place. I know the owner of the place I normally take it and his guys do a very very good job on my car for less than $9. I can get it detailed fully for $40. It looks showroom new
