  • Shiny VW's vs. water shortage

    Fortunately for me, when my Jetta gets dusty, I am back cleaning it, so I never use that much water any more, to keep it clean. Do the rest of the NVD members have their strategies in order, so that their cars will remain gleaming??

        Yeah but if the water shortage gets bad I am sure they will not hesitate to make car washes close or impose limits or hike the rates. I am going to do my part and let the car be dirty for a bit, but a quick rinse and wipe down with detail spray would do the trick.

          Sorry, Ryan!! It was meant to be joke--no harm intended.. Mr. Burns put up the first post, so I figured it was ok to mention your name. No disrespect intended either--you're the man!!!

            For the black cars of the bunch, go graba California Duster...

            And they did say if the water thing got worse, all large commercial accounts wouldbe closed. That means car wash's, laundry mats etc.

              I might actually have to pay for a car wash if this keeps up! I always use my pressure washer at home, but I don't need a $2000 fine right now! Maybe I'll just spray her down with a squirt bottle and then dry her off. I don't think I'll put too much effort in thought considering it is suppost to rain on Thursday.

                Mr. Burns also knows ryan and has been around for awhile

                Um, i always go to spray washes to wash my car so Im not affected by this all that much..if they start closing down the bays Ill just go out to my parents place to wash my car. They are on a well so the city can shove their tickets heh

                edit: So if they are supposedly closing down these biz's what kind of compensation is available? Thats gotta be illegal

                    They also said that if it gets bad enough they will start shutting down residential on a rotation basis. So I think you pussies can live with a dirty car for a few days. I think that drinking water is slightly more important than washing your freakin' car.

                        Yah, my car is terrible, plus it is covered in butterflies & bugs from my trip to Lethbridge this weekend, but I can live without a clean car for a while. I would rather there be water to shower, drink, & put out fires than have a shiny car.

                        I could have punched the guy on my street who was washing his van & hosing out his garage.

                        Maybe this would be a good time to have a "post your dirtiest dub" thread to see who is indeed the dirtiest
