LMAO....Sure his car is clean but his wheels probably have curb rash from runing down the tracks at the car wash 
Why on earth would anyone take one of these cars through a car wash? You are just asking for trouble, lose a mirror, scrape a wheel, swirl marks from brushes if it's not touchless or a list of other things that could go wrong.

^^^LOL All good fellas....I think we just care about microcolt's car so much that it brings a tear to our eye seeing that he takes it through a car wash, and not even a touchless at that! Keep her clean and swirl free guys...
No hard feelings micro...just making sure you don't rip off a side mirror...

Zephyr strikes again.. LOL! Bro, take it easy on the newbies in this forum.. U r scaring them away. Btw, are u also from Chicago? Give some love to a homie. Lol
As for OP, I understand how hard it is to hand wash a car in the cold winter months.. So I only wash my minivan (winter car) in a touchless car wash, it helps keep the swirl away.

I took mine through a wash, and the same thing happened to me. Car stalled at the end when I pulled forward for it to start drying. The only reason I was there was to wash the nasty salt off underneath after having to drive through PA and mountains of WV back to NC. That was the first and last time it will see salt, and a car wash.. ever..
