Sadly, I'll be at work, with the new job. Damn maintenances!

Looks like we're gonna get another flash-freeze though. You guys better bundle up! :D I'd be showing up in the beater-boat, if anything.

Maybe the indoor wash for the next meet, I hosed down my car at Valleymede and 7 last weekend and it turned to ice the second I drove away.

Haa sounds nice druggist. Yeah depending on the weather we might want to be indoors. Let's wait it out for now, check the forecast on Wednesday, and see who else is game. I'll try to make good on next Friday, myself. The only question will be ... which car will need the wash?

I don't know about the rest of you, but my poor RX-8 is just dying for a wash. I'm planning on a late-night run over to Enterprise Dr. for a full-blown wash n' wax.

I'm thinking 11pm, but if we'd rather meet for 10 I'll have no objections. Then maybe some midnight snacks afterwards!

Any takers this week?

wash and WAX? The wax won't adhere at those low temps! Youd have to leave your vehicle for several hours in the warmth for it to work. I'd say save your effort my friend. Just wash and dry.

Yes, weekend is sunny, tonight car wash indeed. Let's do it.

But the question is, are we allowed to bucket wash and not have to pay crazy time for being inside? @ Enterprise that is..
Otherwise, Valleymede is still better option (no one bothering) and gauranteed only to cost $4.

I tried it out a couple of weeks ago and it's crazy expensive. Came to $14 even after the guy was nice and gave me the discounted rate which you normally get if you fill up at the same time.

I had a wash from the dealership so I'm pretty much good. I'l probably come by to say hi and help wash.

Yeah, I also think Enterprise that Shell is kind of expensive... I will go there only if it is -20C or lower.... Even I do a quick rinse at there, still cost me like more than $5 to leave.. I still vote for Valleymede Shell.. I washed 2 days ago, so I probably just drop by and say hi as well..... or maybe I will drive my mom's Mazda3 to come and wash, since it needs a wash....

By the way, Valleymede's Shell DO NOT have soap...... its labeled "No Soap"

I know the coin car wash at Major Mackenzie and Bayview does contain soap...... in case any of you want soap + rinse instead of just pure water rinse.... (Across the street of Bayview Secondary School)

I've always managed to finish at $8 or so. The key is, you go in to pay after washing, and ask if you can dry for free. Washing shouldn't take more than like 10 minutes, right?

But anyway, with today's weather, Valleymede ought to be okay.
