Washing /waxing

While in TX this winter, a couple told us they had just had their 38 ft. fiver washed for $104.00. We just took ours to a new truck wash facility and had ours washed and waxed for $54.00 and they did a fine job. Same size. What are your experiences? Just curious.

    Rig was not hand waxed. It was spray waxed.


    I understand now; hand wax is a long and tiring process.

    They did such a good job I paid them $40.00.


    I bet they were cute too.

    I may be older than dirt but I'm not dead ...
  • Must have been a wash and wax soap because nobody is going to hand wax a whole rig for that price.

    $54 to wash and wax a 5er? That's a very good deal.
