    What are you guys using to vacuum your Tundras? Would like input on both shop type vacs and perhaps a corded/cordless handheld vacuum. Looking to purchase and would like to get some feedback before I do so.

    I use a Milwaukee Battery powered unit with a hose to get the bulk stuff. This option could be fairly expensive if you don't already have batteries. To get the really hard stuff I use a pancake compressor with a trigger nozzle to blow it out. Once you blow the small bits loose they are easy to get up then. This works really well for me.

    The Dyson V11 is no exemption: A handheld vacuums that can clean your entire house similarly as viably as it can clean your car's inside. These battery-fueled cleaners additionally gloat double the pull of numerous cordless hand vacuums. A car vacuum cleaner makes it simple to clean your car successfully, a generally tedious task. Corded vacuums like the Black and Decker have this sort of force line plug for use in cars. You can likewise discover connectors to use with standard vacuum power ropes.

    My 15 yr old started a interior car detailing business this summer. He is having to turn away customers as he is working 6 days a week. It has been almost too successful.

    He will use my standard shop vac first for nasty chunky minivans and such. But hands down for suction his go to vacuum is a very old metal canister Electrolux Model G. See them all the time at garage sales for $20.

    A friend of ours has those; and they literally get asked to vacuum for others. The only things that are close, IMHO, are commercial stuff.

    I own one of the older Dysons; and the local repairman actually knows and is friends with the man himself. (I didn't believe him until he brought up his iPhone, showed me texts, and said "Here, we can call him if you want...." LOL!) I know not everyone may like Dysons, but the one we have is 13 years old, and I'll likely keep repairing it until it dies an unnatural death. It's in perfect condition still. :)
