I just had my 2 newer trucks (1999 F150 and 2014 F250) washed and detailed inside and out. $600

Car washes start at $4.00 where I go. For $7.00 I got an exterior wash, tire cleaner, underbody blast and sealer wax combo, with a towel dry by a guy at the exit. 2 bucks more would get an extra triple coat foam wax.

P.S. An interior cleaning starts with my leaf blower and finishes with a shop vac.

Thanks. I try to keep it clean, but it definitely is still used as a truck.

When they get professionally detailed they look brand new inside and out. I've seen some and you just wonder how they got them that clean.

They spend hours detailing inside and out - even under the hood.

The car wash I use does oil changes, etc. and detailing too. A complete interior steam clean and hand waxing starts at around $120 and only goes up from there. That doesn't include under the hood. By appointment only, and amount of time it takes unknown by me.

P.S. A steam clean might get rid of that old dog smell my truck has, but Febreze and air freshener are cheaper.

Fortunately for me I don't smell like an old dog

Me neither, but unfortunately I smell worse. My dog has been buried in my back yard for years but sometimes my truck smells "doggy". I spray Febreze on the seats occasionally but need to vacuum, scrub and spray the carpet too.
