Though we've not seen hundreds, this is the largest and best disguised car wash we've encountered to date.

Along Smith Drive, just off the highway and beside one of Armstrong's welcome signs and an old wood caboose is this car wash, built to look like a large barn. It has nine bays, with two automatic wash bays and the end bay oversize for trucks and, apparently, vehicles sullied by a particular contaminant.

The place looks quite new and has fairly modern equipment, with the vacuums inside the bays. Each bay except the larger end bay has overhead doors. There are vending machines at the end of the building at the mechanical room, but we neglected to check on what is vended.
