Jorge Castillo: OK snow birds, you've just driven the family sedan 1,800 miles from somewhere in the middle of Iowa. Your vehicle is covered with road salt, mud and a few clumps of good old Iowa manure.

Glenn Lindgren: In short, your ride looks like hell.

Raúl Musibay: Well never fear, once you get to Miami your troubles are over.

Glenn Lindgren: Don't make the mistake of looking for a large, mechanized car wash like they have back home.

Jorge Castillo: What you need is a good Nicaraguan car wash. Just travel down any of the major thoroughfares...

Raúl Musibay: ...Bird Road for example...

Jorge Castillo: ...and you'll see many examples of this great Miami invention. You'll normally spot them next to a gas station or parking lot. For as little as ten dollars, you can have your car washed by hand by four of the friendliest guys you'll ever meet.

Jorge Castillo: For about $35, you can get the hand wash plus hand waxing -- a "detail" job that will cost you two or three times as much in most major cities.

Raúl Musibay: They do it all, inside and out - including the carpets and upholstery.

Miami Car Wash Guide
