Thanks for Rhineland reference. It was only 10-15 minutes from the car wash place I found driving on the way. The Wash Tub, I believe. They had a special where the $35 wash was 'included' with any detail. Since they said they'd take care of my wheels- which were a sh!t show from mounting new tires and 2,500 miles..
So, for $90, they offered a 'clay bar' wax. I dunno what that means to them for the paint, but for the interior, it means spraying high gloss, slippery sh!t all over my dash and plastics. I feel like my steering wheel has been to the proctologist. It smells like a$$, too. Speaking of a$$, I dunno if they use the same slippery shit or different slippery sh!t, but my seat was so slippery, I think they should lube rockets with this sh!t. Seriously. If you can get my big a$$ slipping in a leather seat, you've defied gravity.
Whatever. It was a legit train wreck before and now it's a train wreck that shines on the outside- where we want it- AND on the inside- where we don't
.
Rhineland was pretty cool. They are ALL about the diagnosis, and the customer plan, and the discussion, and like a sh!tload of other sh!t that I didn't have time for. I just wanted the codes cleared. I paid the $90 bc why not. They were nice enough guys and I really don't like that damn error- especially not on a return trip that starts messing with my time-at-the-wheel tolerance.
Since I am here meeting some new folks, I stopped into Diesel Barbershop as well. A straight razor shave is a man's pedicure. I tightened up the #1 on the crown and went for the 4 towel shave. I even picked up sh!t to put in my hair.
Wait. Speakers? Hair care? Beauty parlors? (even if they do have old school Farrah Faucet pinups on the wall) Am I? Is this?
I'm either turning into my wife or I'm having a mid life crisis. Next thing you know, I'll be looking for round tortoise shell glasses so they'll pick up the color in my eyes. :shudder:
Anyway. All of that aside, San Antonio has been kind and about 50 degrees warmer than home. Tough to complain. Now, I'm off to exfoliate before a soothing cucumber rub.
(He said cucumber rub)
