Default We need another car wash

Wish someone would built another carwash in Trailwinds Village--a real one like the Atlantis carwash, not one of those add ons like Sam's or Circle K's

It's quicker to just do it yourself if you're able, the lines are too long at the good car washes.

The lines wouldn't be so long if there were more good car washes.

There’s one on 27 South of 44 past Lake Harris $6.00 for outside wash. They do the front by hand for bugs etc. prices go up for more items ie tires Zw

I use the Sam's club touchless wash for 6 dollars. It cleans the car just fine. I don't know why I would need anything else.

Are there no mobile detailers there? I figure with 2 cars it would be worthwhile.

I agree we need another really good car wash. I haven’t washed my own car since I was 16. Up north we buy Jax car wash Three month unlimited plan.

I approached Tradewinds twice in the last year wanting to build a car wash. They were not interested in having one there !!

I agree we need one and it could be a money maker

News Flash..Most car wash use re-cycled water = Potential damage to your car finish... Buy a hose...really good car wash soap available some include wax = Peace of mind and your automobile with love you even more.
