I think im willing to be the Guinea pig, with some help. I will find out how much the lease will be. Didvide it up, between 20 of us, & we all put in about $$1500, so as not to break anyone.
If it does good, I will pay back $1000 of that exploratory fee. We can all start leasing these Hot spots...
Well, Im very OCD, & always on the lookout. This wash is actually 200 miles away, where my son is a fireman.
My thinking is: some of these closed down single bay iBAs are in tremendous locations.
Next, they all failed. Or did they? Maybe they were just doing below avg, but maintenance was a...
My thinking is usually C-store owners are not carwash guys. They run it themselves, & run it poorly. Then, when business suffers, they just shut it down.
Anyor ever tried this, or know someone whom has tried this?
Correct, I do have a lackluster wash. However, bad planning had zero to do with it. As a HIGHLY successful HS bb coach & AD, & being OCD, i usually overplan everything! Every battle is won before it is fought.

I found an IBA that has been closed down for a bout 8 years! The traffic count on that corner lot is 41,000! It is a city of 80,000 people and there is not a touchless wash at all! It is in a growing area, as well.
Has anybody heard of someone leasing the IBA and hitting it big? Very nice area...
Eric, I didn't do a ProForma. I saw abcity of 68,000 that had zero good Touchless washes, & found a spot in front of WalMart. I knew the traffic count was low, but it is also a stop sign corner with SLOW traffic.
I erroneously thought that would add up to 70cpd. Boy have I been wrong.
But...
Can't offend me, after 33yrs of coaching HS ball. Ha
Traffic count 7500, but it's 15mph, directly in front of WalMart., & at @ Stop sign. Very easy ingree / egress.
No Vacs, & would be a MASSIVE investment to add them, or tire shiner. Building is on an incline, on side of a hill. But that also...
I have a GREAT lookin touchless Petit, directly in front of WalMart. After 9 mos, I switched chems, & now clean cars like a champ.
Issue: i wash 18cpd!! I do not wanna do membetships or an App... yet.
Town of 67,000 with 7 tunnels. 4 are super busy, 3 are not busy at all.
What yall say makes sense. However, I feel like the vast majority of pwners use Low then Hi.
What say ye?
I was striping cars like crazy, in my Petit. McClean sent a field rep, titrated, volumetrics, mojo, hocus pocus, & BAM
Cars are very clean!
