It seems to me, there was a tall bay washer over on 896, near the airport.

I have seen some decent size trucks go through Diamond car wash in Middletown. My stock Super Duty has no issue going through that wash.
How lifted is your truck?

not gonna lie, I'm not sure to be exact bought it this way from the dealer. If I had to bet I'd say three or 4 inches. I'll check out both washes as my new building for work in Middletown and our old building is near the airport.

There is no car wash near the airport. I drive past it everyday. There is also a self serve high bay in downtown Middletown on rt. 299 right next to St. Joe's church.

Maybe it's on the North side of the bridge, Craig. I don't get up there often, but I do recall seeing a high door wash up there, somewhere..

The only other one I know of is about 5 miles North of Seaford, on Rt. 13. That one is big enough for big rig tractors.
