    Best vacuum?

    What is the best affordable vacuum for cars? I have THIS EUREKA and it works great, but the vacuum is a bit too big to vacuum comfortable in a car. Are there any alternatives that work great in around the same price range?

    Every single one of you said a shop vac, lol! I had no idea they were that preferred for detailing an interior. How well do they work with trapped pet hair and things like that?

    Remember...he's referencing a $50 price point, hence my suggestion on used.

    I actually have a 12 gallon Shop Vac but don't have all of the attachments that came with it when I first bought it. Which attachment is the best for carpets and seats in a car?
