SW Indiana melon fields.
I have two washes in the town in which I live. Both are less than 5 minutes away. I have a third wash in a town 20 miles away and a fourth wash in a town 10 miles farther in the same direction.

All five are about 2-6 mi away from house, but can be about 8-10mi from one wash to another . Takes about 50-60 mi a day on average. Very little gas cost , The Nissan Altima Hybrid gets about 38mpg, Fill it up every 9 days.

I have to drive about 20 miles, makes it difficult to dash up there if I see someone on the surveillance video doing something. I've been looking for a house in a neighborhood right behind the wash so I can pop in a few times a day instead of only visiting once.

I have two washes, both are a 15 minute drive from my house. Just a little too far to run up and confront an unruly washer.

More Relevant Question: How Far Does the Customer Live From the Wash

A more relevant question might be:


"How far do the majority of your customers live from your car wash."

Just a thought.

20 miles and 25-30 minutes. Wish I could move the wash to where I live and get the hell out of Cuyahoga County/Cleveland - which thanks to Democrats keep getting smaller and poorer with each passing year.

Relevant to what? Certainly not to his question.
