    Bath time!

    So I had a local company come out and give the Solitude a bath yesterday. Poor guy couldn't find a crew to help so he did it all himself in 2 1/2 hours! Wash (roof included), dry and hand wax with carnuba wax. Looks amazing! I used this company in the Woodlands last fall as well, highly recommend them for anyone in the area.

    We had ours washed and waxed (even waxed the truck but I had to wash it). It cost $300 (2 guys) and I cannot say how long it took because they took 3 days on and off to do it. This was back in November.

    Wow you got hosed (pun).

    They charge a dollar a foot most places we go.
    2 guys doing it by hand, wash and wax.
    We paid $30 and I sat outside and watched them to make sure they didn’t miss anything.

    $30 to wash and wax a 5th wheel??????? It's around $7-$8 a foot in Palm Springs for wash and wax.
