Guys, upon extensive thought and examination trying to come up with a lucrative system for a mobile car wash business, I discarded the idea of using a van, due to its cost.

I came up with the idea of using a motorcycle (with a big delivery box).

The main benefits of using a motorcycle would be: much lower costs and its agility.

In its box I'll fit a Ridgid wet vac, a foldable bucket (for onr), towels, general brushes, and other chemicals, like APC. For a good express interior/exterior wash

I've decided to abandon the idea of a steamer. And decided to focus on a system that can be scalable. (This article comes to mind: It's better to have a system than a lot of tools - DetailSummit | Start Your Car Detailing BusinessDetailSummit | Start Your Car Detailing Business (http://www.detailsummit.com/its-better-to-have-a-system-than-a-lot-of-tools/) - Thanks thebamboo23)

What do you think of all this?

What you drive as your mobile rig doesn't matter, just make sure it's clean :xyxthumbs:
