    Indeed. And I hear they love it.
    Just another helpful hint from people you would never take advice from.
    You're welcome

    What I've recently noticed about BB is that the only things they use a brush on are the front glass and chrome. Everything else just gets a heavy dose of power washing, and a lot of dirt and residue gets left behind. A few weeks ago I got a wash next to the PFJ in Aurora Oregon, and they brushed the entire truck/trailer. Took a long time but the results were worth the wait. Everything was really clean, much more so than BB ever got them.

    BB will brush the tractor if you ask them, but they don’t do it unless requested. They used to do tractor and trailer both upon request, now I think they charge for trailer brushing

    Wonder how much they charge for doing something that should be included?

    Like rinsing really good? with fresh, clean water (not nasty barely cleaned recycled water from the vat)?

    Ya’ll happen to have a list of a few good blue beacons that do good washes? I’ve noticed a lot of the ones on the northeast tend to do terrible jobs. The one in Bordentown NJ is by far the worst still had a line of left over salt on the hood of the truck.
     
    Dave_in_AZ Thanks this.
