    My BB wash by Erie PA was $35, no hand job.

    I placed a call to Twin Fountains RV to see if the manager can line up some compaies that would be interested in cleaning our rigs when we arrive?

    They will let me know if they allow companies to come in and wash our rigs, or if they have anybody for us to call, just as soon as the manager gets out of Church?

    More to follow.

    There is a self service truck wash about 300 yards east of the front gate of Twin Fountains. It even has spot not water. I use this place all the time and take my bucket and scrub brush. It also takes credit cards, so you don't have to sit there with a Truk-Pot-Load-Of-Quarters.

    I have also used truck washes with mixed results. I have been to the same one Spongebob hit in Casa Grande and they did an excellent job. There was one here in Houston right by the Flying J that hand washed, rinsed with dionized water and hand dried for $50 that also did a good job, so it really depends on the place, your level of instuctions and your willingness to supervise the job if they don't seem to know what they are doing.

    Alternately, I have my spot-not pressure washer that I carry in the bay that will turn any empty parking lot or rest area into a bus wash, so that is usually the best option.

    The self service thing is going to work great for me.
    Thanks for the low down and dirty Jerry.

    Default Sparkle on the Spot

    I just got a call from Crystal @ Twin Fountains. They will have an onsite RV Detailing Service in the park from the 1st to the 4th? They are called Sparkle on the Spot.

    I couldn't find them in the Yellow pages so not sure what there price is, but you can negotiate your rate and promise to bring friends to their door.

    "Or Maybe Jim Skiff, should contact them, and get all of us a SPECIAL POG Rally discounted price? How about it Jim S, see what you can do for us, dude?" Or maybe JDUB will just wash everybodys bus this week for FREE.

    Well Spongebob, why don't you just jump on this since you only got half of it done. And if you want, I'll give you your first lesson in bus washing since I know you and Loc just call the porter to get it done. I'll bring the gear and tell you where to place the brush. Oh, wait....I'll need a bigger brush.
