Wow that is a good price. I have seen detailers around Broward asking an arm and a leg for that kind of work.

I told him the same thing... I remember they had charged my friends like $60-80 bucks to wash their f350's... F-cking insane!!!

Man, how do you do all of that in 6 hours? It usually takes me atleast 8-12 hours for a basic detail

Really some GREAT work. Is this your primary job or just something you do on the weekends/side? $80 seems awfully cheap for what the client is getting in return.

I just do this on the side, theres no way I can support myself unless I jack the prices up severely, then all my current customers would leave. But I also work overnight's at victoria secret, and go to college part time also. Its madness I know but hopefully in 2 years by the age of 23 ill have my degree and be able to start my career. Thanks for the compliments people!

Lol, I wish it was like that. But I work overnights so I dont even get to interact with the females. I work with a bunch of sweaty horny guys... Its fun though...

And thanks! Its all exhausting right now but I know it will pay off.

Thanks for all the support. You guys rock.

It's my wife's. I tried to talk her into a new Fit but couldn't. I'm really liking the Cube. It has a lot of interior space and is getting around 26-27 mpg average. It beats the 16 mpg she was getting in her Xterra. She drives about 50 miles a day too. I just bought her the Stillen exhaust for her birthday. I hope she likes it.

okay....I have to confess, I just Google to see what the heck is a flying spaghetti monster and now I understand, I think.

As for the Nissan Cube, it's a cool looking car but for some reason, it keeps reminding me of Benders from Futurama.
