My $254 Car Wash (with pics)

Tuesday, January 9th, 2007 | Life, Rants

So I get to Louisiana and decided I shouldn’t go see my mother until I wash off the crap from my car trip.

At first I was going to go into an automatic car wash. I crept up on it and got on the HUGE ground rails and inched forward only to hear a shrieking noise that I could only assume was the underside of my car getting raped by the giant rails. So I backed out of that and found a hand wash place.

I threw in some quarters and proceeded to wash off my car. Well, I saw a spot on my car during the power wash that looked like some soap was sitting on my hood. So I aimed the sprayer at it and not but a second later and a huge chunk of coating (seems to be some kind of hard laminate that protects the paint and keeps it shiny) blew off.

Now by huge chunk I am not kidding, if you take your thumb and index fingers from both hands and make a circle out of them, it is still bigger than this.

So what does this mean? Basically I will need to have my entire hood repainted because this is not just a ding in the paint job. How it looks now I am guessing the value of my car is about $1000 lower than it was yesterday. What I will have to do is pay $250 to pay off my comprehensive deductible on my insurance to get it fixed.

Yes, that’s right. A car wash just cost me $254 dollars. I am not happy.

You could have at least gotten a reach-around with that anal ripping. Sorry man, that sucks.

p.s. at least your car didn’t break down because of crappy gas.
