it sure is nice, cause you can take 2 hours to do it if you like..making sure EVERY nook and cranny is clean...I always feel like I'm in a mad race against time when I goto the carwash, then I get out, find out I missed a spot and get all upset. lol

Environmentally, this bylaw makes perfect sense for the reasons midgetwaiter states.

On the other hand, what about all the salt our municipalities put on our snow-covered streets when the snow melts and the salty water goes down the storm drains? That can't be good for our rivers

Yes, I am that vain. I enjoy it when people mention to me that my car looks great.

All winter long I just go to the touchless drive through car wash to wash the truck. In the summer I wash on the driveway with SOAPY water. (I don't wash on the street.)

I'm also vain and enjoy a sparkly clean truck.
