I've had this one for years and it works good enough for me.
Also have the matching cordless 18 volt string trimmer,hedge trimmer(which sucks) and drill so I have a few chargers and 4 batteries.

Comes with charger and one battery.
Look around at Home Depot and Lowes and maybe you'll catch the B&D 18 volt drill on sale for $40-$50.
Not so much for the drill but a second battery and charger which would be cheaper than buying a battery and charger and get a free drill.
I picked up the drill kit for $39.99.

It's always nice to have a second battery and charger.So keep your eyes open for that sale drill kit or just buy a second battery and charger if you like the blower.

The unit works well but like GSteg says,best on waxed paint.It has about 25 minutes of good power.Power of course is best at first,then gradually lowers but will do the job.

Used the new Black and Decker 2day. 
Surprisingly worked out pretty good. It was able to get out most of that "puddle" of water I have on the inners of my wheels pretty well. Blew away alot of the left over water in the lug nuts, and in the side mirrors. Also blew away the water under my visors, grill, and roof spoiler which was a 
Overall I think the car drove out of the car wash this time looking "Dryer."(If that even makes sense.) My wheels were easier to get dry. Only took about one full swipe from 12-12 oclock on the wheel to have the lips completely dry. Cant see myself washing my car without it now.
Thanks 4 all the help along the way...

Awesome info! Fortunately I do have access to an electric outlet, so what would you guys recommend for a cheap electric plug-in blower? I'd probably also do the wheels mostly, but if I can do the whole car than even better! Thanks.
