id say its between 10 and 15 minutes. they let you sit in the heated garage. two bucket method with grit guards, and two wash mitt method too (wheels/wells, vs body).

Well in that case that's pretty awesome!!

I've looked around for a place like this local to me, but could not find one.

My 10 step winter car wash

1) Wait for a sunny day that hits over 32 degrees.
2) put on layers of under-armor
3) put on neopreme (wetsuit) gloves
4) hook up hose to slop sink for warm water
5) soak car with warm (not hot) water and wait 2 minutes or so and resaok the car. This allows any salt crystals to disolve in the water and then get washed away on the 2nd resoak
6) wash the car as normal
7) rinse soap as normal
8) dry the car
9) put the car in the garage
10) Drink hot chocolate
