    Honestly, I want one of those for the camper. I'll stick to the 2 bucket wash for the truck.

    I have a corrugated metal sided trailer so it would be a hell of a lot easier to blast it with foam and rinse vs scrubbing the whole thing. I'd probably use it as a pre-wash for the truck also if it was out, then do the double bucket wash.

    Actually most of the detailers I know use the foam gun to pre-soak the dirt/car dry then pressure wash it off after a few minutes of soaking then using a pre-clean aggressive cleaner to loosen stuff up. After that they foam gun it again and use a bucket/super soft sponge.

    I just use my pressure washer, a bucket of soap and a generic car wash brush from target on my truck. The evo gets the multi-staged cleaning.

    Check out the chemicals youtube channel. They tell you how to wash using the cannon. You can cannon then rinse or cannon then two bucket depending on how dirty the car is to start. I got the cannon and a gallon of soap concentrate for 60.

    Guys please take the 1 minute to assist in the protest of the proposed closing of many trails in Wharton state forest!!!!

    1.Copy the text below
    2.Click here,http://www.nj.gov/pinelands/home/contact/general_information.shtml to go to the Pinelands Commission comment page
    3.Fill out the form, paste the text and modify as you see fit.
    4.Click Submit
    5.That’s it!

    Below is some text that you can use to paste into the comment box and modify if wish. We believe this text reflects the position of a reasonable user of the forest.

    I am concerned about the proposed Resolution that is being considered at the upcoming Pinelands Commission meeting on 7/14. While the maps that are being proposed are the USGS Topographical Maps and are widely recognized as the most comprehensive baseline of roads that exist, nonetheless, I see several unresolved concerns regarding this resolution. They are as follows:

    In a previous meeting, the Commission discussed consulting the forest stakeholders before proposing the resolution. This stakeholder group includes various outdoor enthusiast groups, environmental groups, and the Pinelands Municipal Council. To our knowledge these groups have not been consulted.

    It is not clear how this Resolution would affect events covered by Special Use Permits. Even some of the forest’s seemingly most insignificant roads are actually essential for the safety and successful running of these legal and approved events. Support crews, emergency vehicles and spectators count on these roads in ways it would be difficult for those unfamiliar with the events to contemplate.

    It is not clear that this Resolution will have the desired effect. The DEP is solely responsible for enforcing any and all restrictions to motor vehicle access. Since the failure of the 2015 M.A.P. program, the DEP has taken on a more successful approach of enforcement, education and targeted protection projects. It is not clear that this Resolution will improve these efforts and, in fact, may undermine the progress made by the DEP in gaining the support of the stakeholder groups who, for the most part, currently support the DEP’s protection efforts. Further, the DEP has stated they do not need this map to be able to enforce motor vehicle related violations in the forest.

    Most importantly, the resolution does not indicate how future changes to the map will be evaluated and adjudicated. The Pinelands Commission clearly does not have the resources to properly assess any kind of significant volume of proposed changes that may come in the future. It is not clear how the stakeholders would be engaged in this process. Further, some groups will undoubtedly view this as an opening to assail current, legal, responsible access, setting up the potential for a continued and protracted battle for access, which will further consume resources that the Pinelands Commission does not have.

    I believe that the Pinelands Commission should table this Resolution and consult with the DEP to see what, if anything, the Pinelands Commission can do to help the DEP better protect the forest.

    Thanjs much! The tree huggers are really trying to crack down and close 35%+ more trails in the local state forests to vehicle use. Devastating to us.

    Bastards also made a meeting... on a fucking Friday at 0930... yeah because people that work are going to be able to go to that. They are a bunch of sneaky grimy politicians

    Good to know. I think I will try this one since I don't have a pressure washer nor would I want to pull one out every time I went to wash my car or truck

    Oh that's right, it's the Long Trail up there, not the Appalachaian Trail. I should know that, I hiked the entire thing in high school.

    Get an electric pressure washer. They are cheap easy to use and work VERY well. I have this one...

    Ryobi RY141900 2,000-PSI 1.2 GPM Electric Pressure Washer https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I47JVWS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_qUHzzb5NEM6H8

    But to wash a car the 1600 psi one will work just fine for $60 less

    I agree. I have a very light weight electric pressure washer that works pretty well. I think mine is a Green Works brand and is very small. It sure gets the job done in a hurry though!
