I would rather keep my car unwashed than run it through this hellish dry wash process which is akin to rubbing the car with a fistful of steel wool.

I agree. The whole process is flawed and can severely damage the finish. But unfortunately, most car dealerships are adopting this, as mentioned by DBHPian in the first page of this thread.

I assume the water comes from a borewell at the dealership. Is it not possible to do the equivalent of rain water harvesting at these places? Best of both worlds, surely?
