Well, we just got 10 inches of rain in the last 5 days here in funky Lake Worth, Florida so I can relate...I happen to have a leaf-blower attachment for my gasoline-powered Ryobi convertible so I'm gonna give it a try!
Kenneth Coles? Probably. But they kind of look like some men's Dolces boots that I bought in Amsterdam.
Anyway, funny *****, indeed!
P. S.:
When I first read the title of this thread I thought the leaf-blower reference was a description of the sound of a Kompressor!

Leaf blower
I will apologize from the start if this is a dumb question, does your blower have some kind of filter on it? What keeps it from sucking in trash and blowing it out onto your car. Great ideal anyway.

i think you are confusing the high powered industrial vacuum in the foreground that doug was refering to.
the leaf blower by craftsmen does not suck anything in, only blows air out... so it doesnt blow any trash out. if your wondering how it generates air to blow... it doesnt suck in air from what I can tell.
EDIT:
oh wait a minute, i see what your asking... it appears there is indeed a filter near the bottom, but the induction system is very small compared to the air being blown out.

i dont think i'll ever dry my car with 100% cotton towels anymore
it takes like 3-4 full towels to coompletly dry my car after a good wash...
leaf blower dry is like.... so much better! no possibility of making swirls from towel drying and if you think about it, its just like drying your hands in public bathrooms with those blowers
