I know it's a Sin but here in Michigan it is Flipping freezing cold! Even
though I love my bus I wasn't about to get out in below 0 temps to wash the
poor thing. However, I did need to get all the winter road scum off her. So
I went through that damn wash. Normally I don't have problems but this is
one I don't normally use and the thing was set really fast. I am assuming to
make it possible to wash more cars in a shorter amount of time. I thought it
was going to rip the roof off! Naturally I'll never go there again.

My rear wiper quit as well but I think it's a mechanical issue not car wash
fondling.

Thank you,
