John Steinbeck, in his book "Travels With Charlie", wrote about this very thing. Makes sense. Now we need to find a way to use engine warm the water for washing.

@genenco1 Tranverse movement caused by round abouts and general turning will provide agitation. The car doesnt have to bounce to create agitation. The water will constantly move.

Agitate. All you need ;)

You really need agitation to really clean them. That's where you either need to use a washing machine, or scrub board. What with todays vehicles, you have a smooth ride with little jarring and such, so the clothes don't get as clean as a machine.

Thank you for this video! I just LOVE your site, its full of lots of helpful information. just to let you know that they now have a manual hand crank washing machine called the Wonder Wash - it sells for $50 US dollars and is the same concept you are doing here only it takes 3 minutes to wash. I also had a question... you mentioned a good source of light was an LED bar light... can you tell me where to find it? searched online but I'm having a hard time finding it - THANK YOU sooo much :)

If you live in your car, and drive to and from work, it makes sense to wash your clothing in your car. It saves money. Not all car and van dwellers stay in one spot. Aso, for people who camp in a van on their travels, this is another option.
I've never heard of a laundry mat that has washes for $2.50 not even in the 70s.
