No joke guys

My wife went shopping to day with her mom and seen this guy at a gas station at the pumps using the windshield wash bucket and used the sqeegee to wash his WHOLE car with it.I never heard of that before but i wished of seen it with my own eyes. I know you can use a rubber sqeegee to wipe down after a car wash without harm

I have done that before. Well, kinda. When I used to work for my dad snow plowing, I would wash the doors. Why? Because the truck was DARK BLUE and all the salt from the roads got on them so you couldn't see the advertising. After I was done you could.

I am assuming you are asking about my dad's company that I don't work for anymore... He now has 3 plow trucks. The new company I work for has 9 plow trucks (2004-2006 SuperDutys) and 6 tractors (John Deere 6420s).

The 6420 must be a dream to drive with all that power at ready. The last time i drove a tractor was the 1135 massey ferguson when i lived on the farm and i could just keep running till i say the job was done. Lots of comfort and being loaded with options these days with the 6420 and the nice ride with the updated suspension + four wheel drive

Actually, I usually drive a truck. And 1 of them is a 6410 (a 2001 model) and the others are 6420s (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2006 models). Very comfortable!

I've seen this "free" car wash routine here in Scarboro plenty of times. My guess is that most of these folks used that method back home on their GOAT.
