Default mistreated at the car wash

so yeah today decided to wash my stang... havent used it for the day so i drive to the local car wash which is like couple blocks away.... after they finished vacuming the interior... all of a sudden i heard a loud rev.. and i recongize my car and they were reving my engine! they prolly did it like 6 times! my friend said its bad to rev the engine especially when it hasnt been warmed up... i did like a 2 minute drive cuz the car wash was right there to my house... i was soo mad.. i didnt do anything cuz they probably wouldve messed with it more if i started a scene... never going to that car wash again!

This kind of stuff makes me so FREAKING MAD even just to read it.

WHY in god's name would anyone do that to someone else's property......I would have walked in there, grabbed my keys and left with out paying. If they gave me **** I would have beat the living hell out of them and taugh them to respect other people things.....GRRRRRRRRRRRR


I dont let anyone touch my car except the dealership and even then I watch them carefully.

are you guys telling me that if you were a young guy (16-20) working at a car wash, and a badass car came through, that you wouldnt hit the gas a couple of times? give me a break, they just wanted to hear the beast, its not like the pulled a ferris buellers day off in the thing.

I think that is B.S man.....Regardless of age they are working for a company and they represent that company. They should show 100% respect for their clients and not **** with O.P.P (Other peoples property) [&:]

They are there to clean vehicles, not play with them

what did you expect? it's a carwash! besides, it's not like they did burnouts or anything. your car will be fine. also, avoid carwashes!!
