Default Car Washing at Fontana

This is my first time down and I am wondering what accomodations, if any, there will be at the lodge for washing cars. This way I will know what supplies to bring with me. I will be staying in an Azalea cabin if that matters. Thanks

I know I can use some rinseless wash and a bucket, but I would rather have a hose connection.

There are usually 2 wash stations there. They have the hoses and buckets. Bring your preferred soap and wash mit.

True, but after a 16hr drive to get there, she will be hurting for a wash. I cannot live with a filthy car. Slightly dirty OK, but not 1000 miles worth

Oh for ****'s sake. I just put 6K miles on my S in the past 3 weeks, so don't give me shit about how pretty your car is. As much Zaino is consumed by some s2k owners, you'd think they were PCA members

OK, you keep your car the way YOU want, and Ill keep mine my way.

Nope, wait, maybe you are right, since YOU don't wash your car I guess we ALL shouldn't wash ours

Get over yourself.
