Wow! That's crazy. Glad to see your customer wasn't hurt. That could have gone really bad for him.

Some of the latest industry studies say that Monthly members will wash 3.2 times a month. Some will be less and some will be more. If you can figure out your average and make money at that average, it doesn’t matter that a couple people are besting your system and washing every week or even...

That’s a good reason to do something else. Those tracks and trolly’s can do a job on vehicles. Glad you found a niche to use. Curious: How many cars can an Accutrac 360 do per hour? Does your experience match what the sales brochure and company told you?

If you are doing that much volume, have you looked at mini tunnels that can do way more volume than an IBA?

They are doing things we aren't in the US right now. Space is a premium over there. Bigger is not better when it comes to tunnels. So they are doing lots of cool integrations and making things a smaller footprint than most of the stuff made here.

Taiwan, but it was designed here in San Antonio Texas by us for the American market. We actually have one set up at our location as a showpiece if you want to come see it.

Chemicals and Service Hello from San Antonio. Just wanted to say to a new owner in Texas.

Thanks. Let me know if I can help you.

This is the car wash season here in Texas! It's that time of year everyone wants to wash their cars almost daily and everyone will upgrade to your debug chemicals. See it as an opportunity to wash more cars!!!! Order a little extra chemicals so you don't run out, but this won't last forever...

If you want a smaller footprint that will do the same amount of cars, AutoBrite is a newcomer and we are trying to change the way tunnels are done. Make them smaller and do the same amount of cars with a different design on the building. Check us out at AutoBriteCo.com We use a belt instead...

You could also think about upgrading your IBA to compete with the tunnel. There are a lot of new things on the market that can fit in your IBA area and compete with a tunnel for speed. Tunnels are there because people want quick in and out and don't want to do anything. If you can match that...

That's Crazy! Glad everyone is okay!

AutoBrite does a belt replacement for the trolly system that sits right in the trench that is very innovative. Call me at 210-291-8370 and I can get you pricing. But if it's an easy fix with a welder or a good service company that might be the way to go. If it's completely shot and time to...

Crypto Pay is the way to go! It will probably up business 10 to 30% depending on where you are and what it is on. We've installed lots of them and our customers are happy.

My not be a bad idea: https://www.ksat.com/news/2017/11/08/schertz-car-wash-owner-shoots-burglar-breaking-into-his-business/

So your capture rate could be a little higher than 170 per day with that demographic of an area... but will it support a big tunnel and will people use a big tunnel from that area? Normally we would be looking at the population density 2, 5, and 10 miles out. But rural areas are a little...

Good job thinking like your customers and fixing things.

From the last study done by Auto Laundry News, those numbers are in line with the study. But someone else said it, do your own research and see what kind of capture rate you might come up with. If the numbers line up, you are good. If not, figure out who is making a better guess and probably...

That capture rate seems inline with other estimates. But what is the access to your location and what is the speed limit in front of your location? Is there a light right there? Are people speeding by at 55+ or going 30? The slower the better for the impulse buyer.
