Yeah just 2days away!!!! The weather should be good here in Vancouver that day!!!
yes...correct...I've been using those pressuring washer guns at the self Wash place and I think they are pretty damn good

Basically you pay $1 CAD for every 2 minutes for the pressure washer gun.
I use about $3 for my whole car with a total of 6 mins to spray.

I don't even select using water cuz its a waste of money to pay for just using their water. I just select the Turtle wax shampoo wash for 4 minutes, and for the last 2 mins , I rinse the turtle wax off with their clear WaX spray.

Its not gonna wash off a dirty car with just a pressure gun. You need to use a mitt to really get off any dirt marks.

I bring it there to spray down my car when i get bird shit , or salt on my car for a quick little rinse.

It rained hard this morn!! Hopefully that's all she's got for us.

How do we exchange currency when we get up there? I wouldn't hink that we could pay in American dollars?

Us southern folk are meeting locally. Then driving up together. Hopefully we will be there by noon.

Great meet guys and gals!!!

Too bad the cruise didn't work out as planned up to Cypress Mtn.

I hope all the Washingtonians enjoyed their trip up here and get home timely and safely.

I guess we all have something to say about those state troopers!!!!

Had a really great time meeting all members and especially the members from Washington USA and thanks for coming up for the meet in Vancouver Canada. I think this is one of the first time we have a meet together with 2 Countries coming together which is pretty cool. It was a great turn out with 15 cars and the weather was great for the meet. Hope to do it again in the near future!!!

Pics are looking good guys!!

The 2 strip on each side is chrome door edge protectors. They snap on pretty good and tight.

So how was the sushi in Richmond and shopping in Robson St?

Great pics you guys!! Looks like a good turn out. Sorry I couldn't make it but I had a few family commitments which tends to happen with kids (I have 3 boys and hockey and soccer are starting up again).

I'm pissed off right now because some asshole is powerwashing outside my office building and he just powerwashed a bunch of dirt and gravel on my car. Not to mention the dirty water on my wax job.

All he had to do was come inside and ask if anyone would like to move there cars before he started. IDIOT!! Luckily, no damage to my paint that I can see.

Anyway, I've vented now. Hope to see you guys at the next meet. Don't write me off just yet; I WILL MAKE IT eventually! LOL
