Best Car Wash

for having been washed. Splash n’ Dash is a great place to get your car clean without having your wallet cleaned out. Open daily, they provide three options at good prices. All cars are vacuumed and hand-prepped. The Express is your basic wash, rinse, and power blow dry. A triple foam wax and wheel cleaning is added for The Deluxe. Want The Works? They add clear coat protectant and an air freshener of your choice. Ooh, there’s that new car smell! Splash n’ Dash has a community Fundraising Program and, if you sign up, offers a free wash on your birthday. Sweet! —Ariel

Best Place For An Oil Change
ORCUTT 76
Some of us take our cars quite seriously and think twice before we dump any old gas into the tank. Locals who enjoy filling their car with the good stuff from a locally owned gas station have spoken, and they choose Orcutt 76 for when they need to stay on the road. “It’s the old-type gas station,” said Manager Deena Earing. “People come in, they get it done, and then they are out—and they appreciate that.” Owned by Paul Enstad since 1995, Orcutt 76 is thought of as the local, corner gas station where service comes with a smile and at a fair price. —Joe
