What Happens When You NEVER Clean Your Vehicle...

Vehicle quality may have declined, but detailing never has! Great job, Mitch.

[@bmw803]

I think that most car makers are cutting costs on those interiors, because they know most people don't maintain and care about their vehicles, so why spend the extra money.

Hey Mitch! I just left my old job and detailing at a new dealership and having a pressure washer to clean doorjams have changed everything for me at work I appreciate learning all the tricks and techniques it’s making things a lot easier 💪🏾

Totally agree, my 58 cadillac that my parent's bought in 1960 is definitely FAMILY. I was 1 year old then! Mom finally signed it over to me in 1982. If it was to get wrecked I would be INCONSOLABLE! The old girl is still going down the road, lifelong Southern California car has certainly played a role in its good shape, Its 65 years old now, I'm 64. We're growing old together!! Lol😊

You put a ton of hard work into these details and your channels and it shows. Incredible!

[@shannonp1656]

About parts quality: It's sad to realize that even cars and trucks have become so disposable. In the past week I have been told that two car makes will not be serviced by dealers if more than 10 years old. Buy, don't repair. Tech advancements are not always good. I do appreciate hearing your opinion on the vehicles you detail. Thanks for the info and teaching how to detail.

[@SnowyAshton]

That's why you don't get your car repaired at a dealership. They charge out the wazoo and try to find ways to either make you pay more or buy a new car. You ask the trustworthy car guys (or gals) you know for a good independent mechanic they can recommend.

[@HxTurtle]

that's exactly true! there's a technical solution to it and I'm just waiting until some car company will come up with that. this might then pick up just like Tesla did. you don't purchase the car but the right to drive one and the maintenance is on the car manufacturer. sounds crazy, but it's not that wild. saves the owner from rip offs and from a careless built quality that someone else has to deal with. so, you'd pay a fixed monthly fee and that's then it! no surprises nothing down the road.

[@denvernn]

Which makes will not service vehicles 10yrs and older? I had a feeling this was coming and this is the first I hear of it.

never use a stealership for repair unless its warranty work.

[@kacejohnson4099]

For a detailer who is not going to use an extractor, would you recommend pressure washing the door frames? My hesitation is that it will get the interior too wet. Thoughts!

Hey Mitch! Fantastic job as always. I do hope you’re not in too much danger with the fires! Stay safe and I look forward to seeing the next video.

Amazing! Just detailed a 2019 Ford Transit 350 XLT 15 passenger van. I follow your plan. It turned out really good. I guess you can't post pictures on here. But thanks for all of your advice, I follow it religiously. And use your products.

[@to5msheppard]

Thanks to you, Mitch. I started detailing Golf Carts. I’ve done three cars and three different sets of patio furniture. My question is I watch you do some cars and I know you went from the Bissell to the mighty did it make that much of a difference to have the mighty after having the Bissell work for you so well

[@paulamorris4727]

End result is superb. When you end up pulling out so much stuff in the way of tools and other personal items from a vehicle, how do you return it to the owner? One big box or do you return smaller items to the door bins and console?

[@stuartcraigon2003]

Glad to hear you say that about ford. Out here in the uk fird is an acronym for Fix Or Repair Dailly, alternatively Found On Rubbish Dump! That for 150 is European quality and something that is normal and has been for decades for us. Ford is not seen as a quality or premium brand in the uk, probably Europe too, its very much a budget brand with a handful of models that try to appeal to premium brand buyers.

It took me some time to get used to the grille headlights. I think the 23 superduty is hideous from the front. But your commentary is why I left General Motors the 15 truck with its two piece interior plastic door handle half plastichrome half black is rough on your fingers. The rust prone nature of the frames sent me to Ford. Kind of bums me out to hear a long time Ford guy say they got worse. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@paulv5260]

Oh lord, I remember shite carpeting like this when I used to work for a new car sales clean-up/deliver shop for the local dealerships. We'd also get in used vehicles to clean and prep for sale, and carpet like this was so common - so cheap that when you vacuum, seconds after the initial pass you can see pebbles and other debris pop back up - such low quality and they charge 40, 50, 60 K for these things..,. or more

[@MilePost106]

Seems every truck has issues with tailgates and the plastic parts they use. Plastic parts don’t last in extreme cold climates. I’ve had both Ford and GM and nothing but tailgate issues. I miss when they built trucks like my 1973 Cheyenne pickup from years ago. I have been watching your videos and the detailing you do is awesome!!!

[@mrclassic2284]

A lot of the quality issues come from trying to reduce weight and make build parts more “green”. Just buy an older higher quality vehicle and keep it maintained.

[@olSta1948]

I figured the carpet in the they put in the frontwheel are is to damp the sound internally due to the cheaper materials used

[@CuriousKaviCruiser]

What’s the ideal PSI for the pressure washer? I have a 1600 psi pressure washer, hope that is good enough? While I have washed my car a few times but not like as thoroughly as you do.

manufacturers have found that like fast fashion very few people now keep their vehicles long enough and majority keep them changing every 2 to 3 years, hence the quality can be reduced and increase profits
