    3 vehicles you hate detailing

    Here are my three.

    1. 2007 - present Chevy Suburbans. I hate the body style and who the hell pays 60k for a truck only to let their kids trash the thing.

    2. Chevy Trailblazers, OMG! POS!!!! Everything is so cheap and I can never get any satisfaction from one.

    3. Volkswagon cars - cheap cheap cheap cheap cheap interior materials. It also sounds like an old go cart, espcially the TDI 06 Jettas.

    Hey! I'll put the interior of my 2010 GTI up against any car under $60k. However, my '07 Jetta (made in Mexico) I'll agree with you.

    What? The current GMT-900 styling is probably one of the most liked.

    I think they are nice, but I have a love/hate relationship with them.

    I do not think the Sierra/ Silverado are ugly since its a good body style for a pickup. But not an SUV.

    What I like:

    Interior, major improvement over previous generations.

    Great power.

    They sound sexy.


    What I do not like:

    The wheels, they are cheap and ugly.

    The plastic liners in the wells is cheap #### that can get damaged easily.

    The backup camera could be a little nicer for what you pay.

    Price. 63k for an LTZ, #### that.

    The original Humvy is difficult with all the rivets in the body work. Mercedes galeandewagens are also extremely difficult.

    ha...might want to use a spray as opposed to gel on those tires.

    Definitely the mini cooper. Exterior looks great but the inside can take forever.

    Minivans that chauffeur children or pets ....... UGH.

    Pontoon boats - lots of partying vessels on the lakes here .... along with the aftermath of the party.

    Limousines - Kinda the same scenario as above.

    Re: 3 vehicles you hate detailing

    I don't "hate" detailing any of my vehicle, but the hardest has to be my 1977 Lincoln Continental Town Car. It's just such a massive vehicle (the longest sedan made since 1977, and the longest car of the 70's) that one almost needs one of those "click-lock" ladders to lock over the hood and trunk to get the middle of them...I'm 6'2, and still can't easily get it all. The top of the vinyl roof is the worst. Plus, you need almost 2 bottles of chrome polish for each detailing session.

    1993 GMC Sierra SLE, 134,093 Miles, Hunt Club Red Metallic/Silver.
