    Horrible Salesmen.. WHAT NOT TO DO

    I had blast with my last test drive (and I bought the car). I had called ahead after checking the dealer's stock and told him that he had a white 2013 2SS Camaro with all the options I wanted. I showed up, the Camaro was right up front (in horrible shape) but with a HUGE white balloon tied to...

    Summer coming to AZ.

    ^LOL! I'm thinking goretex, those Scottsdale drivers were blowing past them through about 4 inches of standing water with reckless abandon.

    Summer coming to AZ.

    No one wants any of that action. We followed a huge group of bikers out there through some pretty flooded spots, they didn't look like they were having the outing they expected. ;)

    Summer coming to AZ.

    Just got back from Scottsdale, out near Scottsdale Quarter, there were cars that were literally under water. Apartment complex at Scottsdale and Cactus, several cars under water up to the windshield!

    Summer coming to AZ.

    My son just bought a brand new Dodge Dart and of course immediately became a detail freak like his father (back away from my closet full of detailing supplies boy...) :laughing: Anyway, after only a few days of ownership mentions the "it never ever rains here, just blows dirt and dust then...

    Horrible Salesmen.. WHAT NOT TO DO

    I've been laughing over the technique my Chevy dealer uses to try and sell extended warranties. Bought a Camaro SS in 2012 and then it was "you're getting a manual transmission, those are notorious for flaking out." Just upgraded to a 2013 SS and this time it was "your car has them 'Bimbo'...

    I haven't tried any DP products yet but I have been wanting to try the detailers wheel glaze, the glass restorer and the waterless auto wash. So many products out there, so many to use, so many to try. I am looking for a wheel glaze that makes it a breeze to clean my wheels from brake dust and...

    *NEW* Autogeek Gear + Giveaway!

    The professional detail bag seems like the most optimal way to carry all the products you need to do a detail away from your garage. With enough storage and compartments to separate your buffer pads from your other gear to avoid damage or contamination from other products etc. Looks very...

    Microfiber Wash

    Decided a few weeks ago to try the laundry detergent we've been buying from Costco to wash some of my microfiber towels. It's called Ecos and it's about $12 for a big 6.2L bottle. It's natural, PH neutral and does an amazing job of getting my dirtiest microfibers clean with no residue, I've...

    Nostalgia

    Spending a lot of time in the garage, cleaning up making room to park and detail the cars. While sifting through some old boxes I found some of my dad's stuff that I obviously grabbed when he passed away. I found this: I remembered how he used to always be out washing and waxing my mom's...

    Best tire shine

    CG G6 Hypercoat, not too shiny, dries quick, no sling. Jury's still out on durability. I'm going off a single coat just to baseline the minimum application.

    How to fix a deliberate deep key scratch

    I still think these should be legal in the USA, rig them to go off with your car alarm, or when a metal object (like a key, or screwdriver) makes contact. :D

    Vandalism - Heartbroken, now what?

    Well, got my baby back from the dealership today. Actually lucked out and had a co-worker tell me they had a friend that actually restored cars to show quality, turned out to be an amazing guy who really is a perfectionist about his work. The best part is, he does it for the love of working on...

    Vandalism - Heartbroken, now what?

    I hear ya, it's funny though because the service advisor at the dealership even said "man, you're taking this really well" and I really wasn't, but ultimately all that was going through my head was "it's just a car." But like everyone has said, it's a sad state of affairs when someone has to...

    Vandalism - Heartbroken, now what?

    Thanks everyone. I will definitely get it fixed, this is just a case of "couldn't happen at a worse time" staring down the barrel of a new air conditioner for the house. I'm going to check out the body shops around here, find out who's highly recommended and get an estimate. This will...
