Smart thinking locals on the road between Burning Man & I-80, 79 +-
miles to the south, set up vehicle washes along the exit route for
dirty burners who can't stand to have their vehicle dirty any longer.
I think I paid $5 to have a church group  firehose down my westy on
the way home.  I felt much cleaner!  Still took 1/2 a day to clean out
the inside, & you never get it all out, unless you are really AR,  but
WTH!

YMMV,
