Are there any ok car washes - nothing fancy? Just a drive through type - but I am looking for a touchless one.

Where I'm from, gas stations had them all the time for like $12, but here seems like the gas station ones have giant brushes that could rub the paint off.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Where do you live? The best/cheapest one I know of is in Fort Lauderdale on US1 near Davie Blvd. It costs around $7 for a complete exterior wash. If you want wax, it costs more probably around $15. It is by far the cheapest one I've found that does a good job and is quick. The others tend to be a rip-off.

Thanks! Wow that is really cheap!!!! Do you know if it has a brush or is it just water? Is it in a gas station - that's plenty close, esp for that price!

No its not a gas station. It is a full service car wash. They run your car through a machine first and then about 12-15 guys (probably illegal immigrants) hand-dry your car and buff up any spots the machine missed. You cannot beat it anywhere around. I made the mistake of going to other places and they usually charge twice as much.
