I was totally on board with running my Bronco through the auto car wash down the street until I decided to upgrade to Sasquatch package. The tires are too wide to fit through the wash, and probably hits the height restriction.

I did some research and came across this Ryobi undercarriage pressure washer attachment (Ryobi Pressure Washer Water Broom). It seems like a good solution. The only problem for me is that I store my hoses in the garage for the winter so I'll have to think that one through some more.

  • For those of you who are going to have Bronco's that you wouldn't dare take to the automatic car wash, what's your plan for keeping your vehicle clean?
  • If you live in an area where snow/ice on the roads is common - what's your plan to keep the salt off the undercarriage?

How small is this car wash?!

I would be shocked if Bronco, even a Squatched one, wouldn’t fit.

Lol I was going to respond with something really witty to the subject line. I got nothing. Some one will because the internet always wins.
I have a “dry” sense of humor, or else I would have said “water”.

it's a good size but their FAQ says 12" wide tire is the max. My last vehicle I had 285's which barely fit the tracks.

I have made my own under carriage pressure washer adapter by bending a regular want at a 60* angle and mounting it to a piece of plastic block to slide around on. That $40 Ryobi unit would work even better, depending on the tips used.

Oh. The tracks! That makes sense.

I just use one of the ones locally for my Jeep that you pull in and park and it does its thing around you.

It does undercarriage as you pull in.
