You spent it on the Can Am  :redneck:

ok, update on the blower...not getting it.

THAT SAID....I did pick up a few things to try.

small Electric Power Washer and a Foam Cannon.   I did try it out on the truck yesterday...will take some getting used to but I can see how much faster it can make washing. 

I have already ordered a part to mod it better for lower pressure even though the one I got was for lower pressure and lower GPM's. 

Pics to come

Elaborate please.  As you know, I have pretty low water pressure as well.  I feel my electric pressure washer does a decent job but would like to know more of this mod.

I got this cannon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CE78VO8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and ordered this:
https://mjjc.com/collections/foam-cannon/products/1-1mm-nozzle-screw-jet-for-snow-foam-lance

It comes with a 1.2 and it works pretty well for what it is...and based on videos, the 1.1 helps alot with making great foam.

My thought is to use the water pressure to wet the surface and knock it out...then use the foam gun and the two bucket method with two wash mitts and presto, will save probably 30 min

That's cheap.  Most of the ones I've seen on autogeek and whatnot are 3,4 or even 5 times that much.  I assume we will get pictures or maybe even a video?

I sport with my neighbor a few weeks ago.  He is head of a paving crew for his company.  He is planning on bringing millings home to spread over our road.  I'd that happens then it will actually be worth washing my truck again.
