But if you need me to take care of your truck while you are busy fathering, I would be happy to put some miles on a newer F-150...

However, there are those who cannot find a space to detail their vehicle, like apartment dwellers. For these folks I offer the advisory that I just paid $109.00 to have my daughter's Toyolta SUV fully detailed in/out. I personally checked the finished job at it was great.
I did not offer to do my daughter rig at my home with all my rags, Sears orbiter, PC orbiter, and shady garage. My daughter is small built and would never let me do such a job without her working her buns off trying to help me. She is well worth the 109 and smiled from ear to ear.

Even though my dad owns a carwash/Detail center, i still do all my detailing myself. I think it costs way too much money to get your truck detailed. Even though i use all the tools for free. I believe for a truck its like $50 for a Clay bar treatment. Then its like $80 for the machine waxing. Then for the interior costs $75 for a steam cleaning plus all the vinyl and leather gets cleaned and a dressing is put on. then its I think $30 for the motor cleaned and a dressing put on it. So all in all its around $200 - $250 for a good detail. Theres no way i could spend that much money on their car to make it look good. Im glad i get it for free.

Heck, I didn't even notice that until just now. Don't worry I already know what a Superduty will do in a burnout.
What else you drive?

+
Full interior shampoo. (including the seats)
+
full exteriors wax

Exterior plastic treatment
...and they acutally did a good job. The best part is... it took about 30-40 minutes! =)
_______________

After all the work I did to mine a few weeks back, I ran into the "good place" locally, and now I have to redo the entire truck. Needless to say, I won't be going there again. I even asked them before I let them take my truck...."what towels do you dry with" he said, the good ones.
Lesson learned. Want it done right....do it yourself.
