Looks like another fantastic job DP! Do you charge more for trucks? (just due to size difference)

8 hours !!!! No wonder you charged 160.00 I still think it's cheap ,the local detail place here charges $150.00 for cars and $200.00 for trucks.

yeah i take my time and am very meticulous....good thing about the wax i put on is that it will last at least 4 months no matter how many washes or rain it goes through...the guy said he will be a lifetime customer from now on...also said he has a few buddies wth show semis that might want theirs done...i just wish i had the time to do that lol

Derek,

Well, probably in a few years we will end up in Ohio. We cannot stand this state anymore... It is taxing thier citizens to death here and with all the new regulations I now take 60% of my pay home. The state combined with the feds are now taking 40% away. It is so hard to raise 4 kids and 2 adults on $500.00 a week take home. And that is with 11 - 12 hour days. It's depressing....Sorry for the rant and thread hijack...

If I ever do move there you can bet I will help you with the car. I'd be honored to.
