Hand clippers all the way for me too.

Ah, but are they the one or two handed kind? My daughters friends thought I did the whole yard with scissors since I had the one handed jobs Yard still is the best in the hood even though the power tool only gets it really nice instead of perfect.

The neighbors still roll their eyes when I detail the outside sills and such.....hey, ya can't just leave 'em all dusty.

My ex girlfriend tells me that if I had put as much effort into our relationship as I do caring for my car, we would still be together.

Hahaha....I've heard that one before too. I got rid of her.

Yep, one handed here too. I bought a pair of the bigger two handed ones for trimming the shrubs and tried them on the lawn but the one handed works better. As of today I have an extra 150' of fence to trim along. So I might get some use out of the weedwacker yet.

I wouldn't wash anybodys car for a measly twenty bucks. It takes me about three hours to wash, dry, vacuum and clean the windows. Heck, the local car wash charges twelve to eighteen bucks (depending if you want the interior stink, flashing light wax and tire goo) and then a couple bucks tip to the guy for scraping the paint off with a shop rag.

Neighbors gave up thinking I was normal a long time ago. For many years I was the guy that edged his lawn with hand clippers. Age (and maybe a little less OCD or slightly more sense) made be finally break down and buy an edger/weedwacker thing.

I'd charge twenty for a quick wash, if I'm already doing mine, I havent even thought up a price for more. But I've heard people complain for a $20 wash and vaccuum at the local place
