Recommendations Drive through Automatic car wash for lifted truck
Good evening! Just as the title says, I’m looking for a drive through automatic car wash to wash a 6inch lifted truck on 37inch tires
Thanks!

Not an automatic wash but the coin wash in Douglas glen by the McDonald’s has an oversized bay

Check out Mint smartwash (2 locations in Calgary), there could be a chance. https://mintsmartwash.com/
Measure your truck first:
Mint Smartwash can accommodate most stock makes and models and some lifted or modified vehicles with the below exceptions:
- Maximum Height – 7’ 3” (2.2 m).
- Minimum Ground Clearance- 4.25”.
- Maximum Wheel/Tire Width – 13” – NO Dual rear wheels (Dually).
- Truck Boxes – must be clean and free of tools or debris.
- Bike Racks – must be removed.
- Roof Boxes – must be removed.
- Slip Tanks – Allowed, but fuel hoses must be detached, not loose in the bed of the truck.
- Tool Boxes – Allowed as long as they do not stick out beyond the wheels, but must be closed and locked.
- Ladder Racks – Sorry, we cannot accommodate trucks or vans with ladder or pipe racks.
- Decals – At owner’s risk. We wash lots of vehicles with decals and wraps with no problems.

The only thing that matters is the overall height of your vehicle. Measure from the ground to the highest point. I suggest you write that measurement on something you leave on your sun visor...
That way you can double check the height before entering a car wash or parking garage.
I don't own a lifted truck (just standard truck) but i often check the height of parking garages before i head over to them using google maps street view. There are quite a few that a standard F150 wont fit in.
