For those too lazy to wash their own car

The Dirt Busters car wash at Garfield & Madison in Carmichael has a $45/mo package for unlimited car washes for a single vehicle. I have had the time to wash my car at most twice a month since Sarah was born but finding this solved the anxiety caused by having a dirty car. Hell the money I save on happy pills will almost cover the cost of the wash package in and of itself. I plan to get my moneys worth out of this deal and then some, I figure having the car washed 2-3 times a week is well worth the $45.

I took my car there for the first time today and 2 weeks of brake dust was washed off of wheels, the car was washed and dried, windows were cleaned and the car was vacuumed out.

Are these "touchless" or brushless car washes?

You won't have any paint left in a year if you went everyday.

I know that the Dirt Busters in Citrus Heights is touchless, and think that the one I went to is as well. But to be honest, I don't really worry about it.

If all the paint gets washed off of my car it will give me an excuse to have the car fixed with twice the amount of paint that FHI provides - 2 whole thimbols full.
