They have those here too, Snappy Express, for $20-40 a month, includes free vacuum and air. Actually considered it also...

Did the same. $25/mo.Signed up for the $22 / all you can wash deal at the nearby car wash.

Thinking of cancelling though. They put in those damn spinny brushes. Not sure I trust those.

Agreed. I don't trust those fast-spinning brushes either! Has to be brushless car wash.

Looks to have much better coverage and be more durable than the one Mazda sells.

Seriously? Your average speed was 123mph? I'm surprised that the CX-5 will even go that fast let alone average that speed over any distance.

To be fair, Chris has modded the hell out of his CX-5 I think.
But agreed on the average speed not making much sense.
I was going well over 100mph on I-80 through Wyoming a couple years back, but probably the max I got was around 110.

And it certainly wouldn't average 21 MPG if 123 MPH is the actual average speed. Maybe that's showing max speed? (whistle)

Yep, exactly. I don't trust that the overhead brushes that look like some kind of cloth to me don't have grit stuck in them that then gets rubbed all over my car. No thanks.
The side ones look like rubber though, but still, just a big "No" from me. My CX-5 has enough scratches and swirl marks LOL! I will figure out how to fix those one day.

Yes, I've always sworn by touchless. How can these modern ones be so bad?, I thought. This one is always busy. Has great reviews
..yea...I've got at least 5 scratches I swear weren't there before. Canceling....

I uploaded this pic earlier in another thread - GPS measuring is more accurate then the speedometer. 223kmh is 138.5mph and the speedometer will show around 140-142mph it's always a bit higher.
My bumper baby sometimes run up to 143mph (depends on his mood and the surrounding conditions-everyday a bit different) then the speedometer show around 146/147mph.
Usually I don't take pics on this speed ;-)
