lol, my kind of guy I use to blast out my Toyota (the one before the one i have now) I painted the floor with bedliner and would pull the seats and just hose it down

when doing an engine or a trans you don't want to apply the kind of pressure required to blast the dirt off. think of it like taking a shower, you scrub up and rinse. the pressure washer is nice because the water is on the end of the wand so you can get it in tight places.

shoot I've pressure washed myself, let the thing idle, put on the wide angle tip and it will blast the mud off your boots and not even get your feet wet.

this what happens when you have to pressure wash the driveway because you own a diesel and you are moving out... and the guy inside doesn't want to do the dishes before you box them up!
