Ойын-сауық
Buc-ee's in Katy, TX hosts the World's Longest Car Wash. It opened in November 2017, is 255 Feet Long, and cost $3 Million to Build. I had no idea what to expect when I put my car through after a long drive from Los Angeles.

I'm a detailer, and I work at a Express car Wash, let me tell you I feel bad whoever has to do maintenance on that track, cleaning out the trench is not fun lol! Whoever has worked at a car wash knows what I'm talking about lol
Buc-ee's is like a tourist attraction! 🤩 I wish Costco has that many gas pumps. 😂 It was fun to see the car wash and you scrapping off the remaining bugs from the fender with a push broom. 😆Thank you for sharing this fun and unique experience at the world's longest car wash, AK! 🤗

What cool blue washcloths, thoroughly clean the car like hair!!! 🤗 And we have self-service car washes basically, people wash themselves with a strong jet, the water flows down the trays and back into the sink and it can be washed again - a waste-free water cycle!

Wow , cool video 😊
I have ceramic coating on my car and was instructed to use touchless car wash. They claim the brushes put micro scratches and swirls on the surface. I told salesman, I wish you never put it on. Very hard to find a touchless car wash. He said all regular car washes are bad for all cars, with or without coatings. Since I’m not in car shows, I say pooey 😂 So for now I wash it myself, but it’s brutal 😊

I have a ceramic coating too and washed it by hand for a while but don't have the time anymore and just take it through the car wash. They key is finding a good newer carwash that uses the foam brushes and maintains their equipment and the chances of getting scratches is very low, in other words stay away from those cheap gas station car washes. I have probably gone through close to 20 times and the ceramic coating is as good as the day I got it applies and besides some very minor swirls on the lower parts of the vehicle near the rocker panels there are no other scratches. I think the reason for this is because the lower areas of a car right behind the wheels are the dirtiest and the brushes are designed to scrub these areas the most and it can cause some very lights marks but it is hardly noticeable and since it is not a show car and just my daily driver it does not even bother me.
thank you, hope you visit other buc-ees car washes!

It's still cool to go through a car wash as an adult
Gas was pretty cheap? Wow!
Cost? I pass by this place several times a year. Never stopped though. I've been to Bucees many times. But I've never been to the world's longest car wash!!!
Definitely a nice car wash although I feel the 255' was unnecessary of them other than breaking a world record. At the end of wash with how far past the building and dryers the conveyor extends out, that's not typical of a normal car wash and I can't think of a practical reason for this other than the world record factor. and this isn't a common practice to my knowledge. Think that's why Buc-ee's hasn't done this at their more recent car washes while keeping the same equipment layout. It makes sense for the volume of vehicles they wash to have bug prep be self serve and away from the lanes and loading area as prepping would take too much time and reduce the volume this wash could handle ($$$). A load and send type wash. Although I feel the Bug Prep was an after thought and can be confusing for customers who aren't familiar with prepping their own vehicles prior to washing. They should have signs (step 1, 2, 3, etc.) instructing customers how to use this for best results. The good thing about this is the time it takes from using the bug prep to paying for a wash to being loaded and sent gives the bug chemical enough idle time to do it's job and makes it easier for the equipment to get the junk off.
When they said they do everything big in Texas, they are never joking around. 😂😂😂😂
AK you should have used bug cleaner and brush before car wash. Then the car would be cleaner with no streaks. Oh well next time.
Like the old saying goes, everything's bigger in Texas 😂
I wish I could live in Texas...
I wish I had known you were going to be in Katy, I live a 10minutecar ride from the car wash
Awesome video!😊
I feel the pain when you rub that dirty brush on your ice edge color Camry

I'm still trying to understand how Jon Be Barr passed AK in subs. AK had a huge lead and content is kinda set for a broader audience and not just NY, which I think is better. AK is more of my type for great content.

Your not supposed to use that stuff after the wash. You need to wash it offf after using it because it eats away at your paint after siting on there.
