I used to love the dry season in the tropics. Wash the car once, and it was good for a month at least.
Our daughter was actually diagnosed with extreme sensitivity to loud sounds and bright lights, so no automated carwashes for her.
Does it affect her in other ways? I think my daughter has a sensitivity to loud sounds. I should shout more to help her get over it.
She does like to use my pressure washer on our car though :)
Mine is scared of using it :D
