@@USAElevators Very nice. Theres a few caliber car washes in my region that I will need to get some videos at in time.

@@WizardEnigma I enjoy them myself. Im hoping to do some car wash of terrors this year for Halloween!

Which location is this ?

@@R.J.S Its located on Creighton Rd in Pensacola Florida

@@unknown-mz9jq I thought so too. It was a really nice wash.

@@USAElevators probably the reason why it was $30 😆

@@ChevyCitation i actually never even noticed 😅

it is, but hey its worth it to keep my car in the best shape possible, plus I don't want to be a cheapskate on my channel. 😆🤣

@@Jamiemainchannel5 what a shame for being almost 30 years old

@@SFCarWashChannel yeah I have driven past the one at Azelea, and I know about the one at the intersection of Schillinger and Moffet Rd, just this time of the year its downright impossible to get in and out of Mobile with traffic always being backed up for miles. Ill go explore Mobile after tourist season is over. They also have 2 Mod Wash locations as well I want to take a look at.

@@CarwashMan18 Azalea is now open. Curious to see the condition of the ModWash stores when you visit them.

Yeah.

There will be more to come. It seems car wash tunnels are popping up all over the place nowadays like Waffle House's

Thats awsome! How is that Laser Wash 4000 across from the Mobile station just up the road from this one? I have been needing to do a video on that system.

@@CarwashMan18 It’s actually a 360+. Its okay, not the best but not the worst either. 10 years ago it was a Powerrain system, then in 2016 they replaced that with an Older G5 with the pre-maxair dryers, then in 2018 someone hit it and that 360 has been there ever since.

@@zacharybishop6595 bummer I missed out on the rare Powerrain system. Will have to visit this wash the next time I head to Folkston.

Its been abandoned for over a decade unfortunately, and would cost a fortune to fix it up, or even replace it with a more modern system.

It sounds like the machine still has some form of power to it I can keep hearing a beeping sound from it that u hear from some ryko machines

​@@hyuga360death Wow! I didnt even hear that beeping. And its likely coming one of those 2 electrical boxes at the entrance end. But the box where you can flip it from "car wash open" to "car wash closed" didnt seem to have any power, however I didnt mess with it to not get myself in trouble with the gas station.

Florida used to have all sorts of these vintage ryko machines everywhere. A handful of r7bs, voyagers and ultracleans made it to the mid 2000s before getting replaced.

That beeping is a bird.

That is the Ryko Thrust Pro 1, and yes it could not only move some air, but could move water too! Yes she was indeed a outstanding and old Ryko Voyager and operated for over 30 years. Last I checked on the Ryko Softgloss Maxx that took its place is no longer in service or ababdoned.

Thats wierd because none of my sensors ever go off in a car wash.

Yes sir! Thank you so much! 😁

Sure thing.

That system has probably one of the best undercarriage blasters I have seen in a while. the fact it was spraying water onto the front of my hood from behind is amazing.

true to that statement, although I think Rich's have more colored lighting in their tunnels than this one, but I could be wrong. However, all the lighting is very eye catching.

Oh absolutely!! Just this one still running by 2018 being over 30 years old before it was retired is BEYOND impressive for a car wash system.

You should watch the outside view when it clears the pool inside the bay away from the dryer.

@CarwashMan18 Watched that, too. Not surprising that the dryer did that.

Cool! I couldnt remember the actual name of this system. But I remember doing a video on it.

I know. Ive seen a lot of water wizards, but never a water wizard fastrack other than this one.

Its a DJI Osmo Pocket 2 Gimbal camera. It does a very good job with the car wash videos. I use it for train videos too, but its about to get replaced

Personal reasons. But its all good. Im starting new and fresh.

Nah you can keep it up and running. You got my permission to leave it on your channel.

@@CarwashMan18 Thanks a ton!

Yep! This is the same location from my old channel. Im still waiting for the Nu-star soft touch plus/ Mark VII Aquajet 300 to open up off Highway 29 across from the Ronny's.

Yeah. It doesnt matter to me, I just want to show everyone the top wash in any video I make.

Yeah it was. This is probably the most expensive price of a car wash I have been to, even on my old channel.

Yes sir you are correct

It was a very nice ride through

Happy to be back!

Thank you sir! Glad to be back making high quality car wash videos for everyone again. 😊

No worries my friend.

I have seen a lot of car wash enthusiests do this sort of thing where they walk through tunnel car washes, however I am not the kind of person that does this sort of thing because I work in a heavily mechanical industry and I know all about how moving parts and machinery are very dangerous and can cause a great amount of harm to people when they least expect it. So unfortunately I wont be doing outside videos at least of tunnel car washes but in bay automatics I could probably do.

@@CarwashMan18 see if you can come back and do a outside view if not is fine

If you mean the one on Airport Blvd then absolutely! I had that one on my old channel and it was a highly popular video.

It did pretty well in my opinion.

Well thank you for the warm welcomed return back to the car wash world, and indeed it was wierd to see the power still on but it was very evidently clear it wasnt working anymore

It will be a while before I start venturing way out to distance car washes as I need to grab all the ones in my nearby areas again, although I promised to go do a re-shoot of the abandoned Ryko Voyager 2 in Tallahassee in December.

@@CarwashMan18 okay

Yep thats me, and thank you for the comment. I have returned 😁

I know! It did look in great shape in 2021. Looks like something went wrong with the left side wheel scrubber, and either the part or parts were too expensive or no longer existant.

Yep!

@@CarwashMan18 Man it's been so long, I am that guy from Florida btw just on my secondary account. Do you have FB where maybe we could keep in contact and get to know each other further by chance?

Oh gosh its been ancient times since I have personally seen a R7B. Probably the one at the chevron in Mobile that had that very short bay Softgloss XS.

yeah that bay had a very interesting history! from r7b to voyager to 1st gen softgloss

@@bpot1927 there was also a BP gas station at the intersection of Cottage Hill Rd and Schillinger Rd that had a R7B with green fillament brushes in the mid 90's and later turned into a Voyager with the same green brushes. The gas station closed down in the early 2000's and turned into a bank that is still there to this day.

@@CarwashMan18 extremely interesting! where im at, we do have a r7b (blue checked scheme,no dryers) at a diamond shamrock.. but of course it is closed forever unfortunately

and i must ask, did both those r7bs you mentioned have dryers?

Ofcourse. Ill swing by it in December when I return from Folkston and get a new video of it!

@@CARWASHCHANNEL. Yep. I have returned

@@CarwashMan18 welcome back
