So when it blows back out all the dirt from the vacuum feature on the first few seconds of start up, it doesnt blow things up?

The one end is the "suck" end and the other end is the "blow" end LOL

So when you vacuum You put the bag in and the hose on the "suck" end

When you use the "blow" end put the hose on that end and take the bag out.

Only takes about 15 sec to transfer its so easy the way its designed..

If thats what you were asking LOL

A 240mph Toro Leaf Blower = Completely dry car in about 10 minutes.
In fact, I just used it last night to blow 6" of snow off the car. Worked awesome!!

return it and get yourself a california water blade ... or an electric leaf blower ... ived used the water blade on all of our family cars for a long long time, and as long as you rinse it before using it ( to make sure nothing will scratch the car ) then silicone will not mark the clear coat at all ...

and the leaf blower is for the door jams, under the hood, whatever, but i bet its as powerful as the 250 dollar rip off ... for a fraction of the cost, and it can still blow leaves, and do other stuff


RIPOFF

As long as you keep a good coat of wax on the car I don't see the need for anything special to dry a car.

But if you can afford the $250, and it helps you out after washing all the vehicles and you are happy that is the most important part!!

so true man !! we will see if it is any good . I guess I look at it like the hood I did not need it but I sure like it and that is so true the $ 250 is no big deal for me so that is why I figured it was worth the risk .

Hi `Keith, It's great to read that you are fortunate & that $250 is no big deal 2 U, but it's still a lot of $ dollars 2 me...
I hope some day that I'm in a position that $250 isn't that much 4-Sure....It's sad that $250 doesn't buy what it used to buy , but our American dollar is declining : (
Money Market interest is less then 1% on investments : (
To me that's really a low % 4-Sure....so, go spend it now while it's still worth something LOL
Will be look'in 4ward to your review of your new `toy : )
Good Luck & thanks for all yours & member's contribtuions
on this subject & others on the MCF : )
