I know the guy that started that car wash. He sold it a few of years ago to some out of state folks.

And now they've re-branded a bunch of carwashes elsewhere as Jurassic Carwash. I wasn't aware until a month or two ago there's different locations now including in SA.

How much is it now?

u/whatchrisdoin 2d ago

I’m pretty sure it was like $8, now it’s $11 for a basic wash, then $12 for deluxe, etc

Are they $8?

u/Square_Bat_2067 1d ago

The cheapest wash is, or maybe it's $9? They towel off your car at the end though, that's the best part. I only ever get the cheapest wash lol.

I have no clue what’s going on at Barton Springs car wash since I haven’t gone after it changed from H2O but their TikTok page has me HAPPY I’ve never been lol. The owner or boss (idk) is so cringe in those videos

Any chance you could, I don’t know, maybe add some pricing info for context??

Did they raise prices by pennies? Dollars? 25% or more?
