There are just two Toyota dealerships in Albuquerque. Until recently, they were part of the same Larry Miller ownership group, but one was sold a month or so ago and is now Sandia. I haven't used either.

I wash my own car and am not taking on any new customers.
Thanks for the helpful information. I went online last night and the Sandia Dealership did show up. My Camry will need routine servicing plus front-end alignment in a couple of weeks.
I like Rain Tunnel Car Wash on Lomas just west of San Mateo. But it's not drive-through, they put it through for you. Lately they've been short-staffed so there can be a wait. I remember trying Mister a while ago and thought it was a rip-off.

Yes, I am in agreement with you. When my car was finished going through the wash tunnel, there was still dirt on my rear bumper and wheel well area. For as much as you pay, you would think they could do a better job. I will have to keep an eye on the Rain Tunnel and give it a try next time, thanks for your reply.
I ended up going to Mike's Carwash on Louisiana Blvd this morning and do have to admit that I had spent 1/2 of what I spent at Mr. Car Wash and had a positive experience at Mike's, their high-pressure hoses do a fine job knocking off bird crap and plain ole dirt, they do take cash/cards. I did end up making an appointment at Sandia Toyota for next Monday for servicing and front-end alignment.
I also use Mike's for a quick $2 DIY job, but prefer a place that can dry the car for you. On Wyoming between Harper and Paseo there is a place (forget the name--Quickshine?) where for $10 you drive onto a conveyor into the car wash, and they have blowers at the end. Still need to wipe dry some areas afterwards.
I've been using Mike's on Louisiana for years and it is still my pick for a carwash. I have tried several of the drive-thru places and had nothing but bad luck. One place literally ripped the tire off the rim on my car. They did replace it with no argument, but my car was laid up while they got a matching tire (I didn't want to drive on a donut spare). Hassle! Then about a month ago I tried the new Quickshine on Wyoming just north of Harper but my car still had very dirty rims when they were done. I asked the attendant why the wheels were not washed and he told me I had to pay extra beyond the base wash to have the wheels washed. Not going there again. I'll spend the time it takes to do it myself at Mike's and know that I get a good wash job at a reasonable cost. I bought some leather chamois and a wheel brush off of Ali-Express and they make washing and drying the car real easy, only takes about 6-8 minutes max.
