Default Car Vacuum
Does anyone have a reco on a good vacuum for cleaning your car? Tired of taking our full size Dyson outside. Got to be something easier (outside of paying for a detail job!)

Thanks!

Steve

I just use my shop vac. It's already in the garage, convenient and works well. I haven't found any small hand-held vacuums that work well.

Check out the Home Depot bucket head. Fits on top of the standard home depot bucket and is much more powerful than any hand or home vacuum.

Buy a Bucket Head Wet/Dry Vac - BH0100 at The Home Depot

I took it apart and replaced the 6' cord with a 20', 14ga cord instead of having to use an extension cord every time.
