Those things don't do shite. Who the hell actually pays to use one of the those?

they work fine for someone that just wants to get the dust off their car but anything else is a waste

Drive through yes but touchless is very underwhelming for actual dirty cars..

I do. I haven't hand washed my shite since I bought my truck 3 years ago. I use that place on highland by Jefferson. I do use that green water to brush my chrome before going through. I'm a real piece of shite.

I wouldn't let the dealership wash my car, I just tell them not to.

Most dealerships have car washes in the back, obviously because they need to wash cars frequently. I don't know if they'll just let you drive through it though.

I go to Pelican Point every Tuesday. $3 wash and you vacuum yourself. I wipe my truck down before I go through and dry it with a chamois in the vacuum area. It's not the best wash, it's not touchless either, but it looks great. Cheap and saves me time.

If I DO use the touchless, I at least pay for the most expensive one that will shine the tires and clean the wheels, then usually get out afterwards and dry it off myself with a shammy. Seems to work if you want it done quickly.

I have a truck. Whatever doesn't need to be on it will fall off with the next rain. If that's a "touchless car wash" then, yes, I use one.

Meh. I use bennys 6-8x a week for 2 vehicles. One of which is black.

When I get enough paint swirls on the black one I'll bedline it.

This. Don't think I've washed my truck since I bought it.
