It does a great job on those duties and I use Griots PFM towels to dry the rest of the car. 1 of the PFM towels will dry my full size Cadillac and the blower keeps the annoying water streaks in check. I got my blower at the big online store that starts with a A.
i would rather pay a tad more and get a leaf blower (more air volume). i have one of these i got at walmart on clearance for $7 and i's okay for the small things (as you mentioned) but not enough to blow the majority of the water off the entire car...

Re: Opinion on Blower
I'm not a pro, but I like blow drying cars and toys. For smaller cars I sometimes use my Makita 18 VOLT LXT Lithium-Ion cordless blower (it works on the same batteries as all my other Makita cordless tools). Its a little power house and very convenient. On SUVs, Trucks, RV, Big Boats, etc., I use the blower attachment for my Stihl Kombi-motor.

Exactly! It really works though bit expensive. May be spielwurfel would consider it. It is good for every nook and grany too. The blower is compact. Two to three passes, I didn't have to use towels...

Re: Opinion on Blower
Thanks for the opinions, guys. I guess I'll stick with a blower to dry those damn cracks and crevices, brakes, maybe wheels, and to help removing a good amount of water from those larger panels like roof and hood.
A cheaper one should do the job as you indicated.
Thanks!
