Thanks! It works fine, its like a foaming quick detailer. I would never use it over the whole car but its great for bird poop or something, you can hit it and the foam will stay there and work and loosen it up.

Yeah I've had one in every car for a long time, This is the nicest one, and it pops right out if you have a passenger, and the base can be used for a lot of different things, you can put a tablet mount into it, they make a table, they make a big hook for hanging things

I don't wear them nearly as much as I used to, but for work unfortunately I do have to fairly regularly. I don't wear ties anymore...

i got an obdii scanner because my significant other has had an intermittent check engine light on her vehicle and hasn't had time to go to a dealer or auto store to get it checked.
i got a motopower MP69035 as it seemed well rated. worst... instructions... ever.
NOTHING works as described and it doesn't even show you HOW to use the device.
pretty sure i got it 'done' though with it running through some protocols on the screen then showing a 'read codes' screen with $03, $07 and $0A code lines. none had any codes in them, so i presume the car isn't throwing a code. tried it on my 2 cars too and not surprisingly, no codes either.
but man what a confusing little device. i guess that's why they're cheap.
