Washing a humongous vehicle

Car wash,

Nothing is so mundane as washing a car, a ritual that is loved by carnuts and dreaded by many as an evil necessity.......

If you do believe in the common folklore that particles of dust on your precious 'carriage' will interrupt the airflow, thus demanding more energy (energy = petrol) in order to move from point A to point B, yeah right......I show you the way to the nearest asylum.......

It's a fact that a clean car does look so much better than a smudged vehicle. In some parts of the world, peeps are downsizing their vehicles, going the extra mile to be more environ friendly or as with older and single households, the demand of having a big car just doesn't add up with the fact that there are fewer peeps living under the same roof......reality bites the dust.

But in some parts of our globe, it looks cool to have a big, big car, even when it looks like an oversized refrigerator, aesthetics don't come into the equation here, just the notion that it can transport a whole wagonload of people comfortably. I'm the first and frankly I bet that I'm not the only around, to admit that I'm not attracted to such humongous vehicles, but I sheepishly have to be frank that those cars serve their purpose quite well......instead of using 2 sedans to move around, one whallop of an oversized refrigeratorlike car does perform the job at hand quite nicely, thank you very much indeed.

Any drawbacks then, apart from the huge carbon footprint it emits?

I bet that no one of us has thought of washing their car whenever we roam the showrooms, pondering whether or not to buy that glistening, polished vehicle. But there you have it, once purchased, the chore of washing the car is inevitable........

As in the case of this big car, it can be quite a task at hand : hose, bucket, soap, sponge and even a stool in order to reach the rooftop. And by no means is it a task which can be done in just mere minutes,.....make that an hour or two at least if you include of cleaning the inside of the car.....

And all of that because we love our 'holy cow'..........next time you decide which car to buy, don't forget to think about how much time you'll spend of washing it.....you'll be in for a nasty surprise :p
