### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth reading.

I'm more interested in buying a Car wash business then building one, but this book was still well worth reading. You can still use much of the evaluation criteria given for a new carwash site to evaluate an existing wash. The book was written in 2008 but not outdated. The Authors predictions for the future of the business were on point so its still feels current. I would love to have an update to know what he feels the future holds given the state of the industry.
