Any electric pressure washer will do for a vehicle. I would personally skip out on the foam cannon. Other than looking cool, it doesn't do anything except waste more soap than a normal wash. The end result is the same.

One of the reasons the detailers like the cannons is that it can dwell on the surface and break down the dirt before agitation with a wash mit. So the heavy layers of dirt can run down the vehicles surface before even touching it and stirring it into the paint. It also lets you see well where you have been, and when using presoaks it lets the chemical cling to the surface and and start the breakdown action. But yes it does look cool and it does use a lot of soap like you said.

Need some help here. Did a little mudding yesterday, now looking for a few things to get the mud off the Jeep.

I already have a garbage Portland 1,750 PSI pressure washer from Harbor Freight. It works perfectly fine and I actually like the fact that it's very low power...much safer on cars.

My problem is - I need to buy a bunch of accessories/attachments to wash everything properly - for example an undercarriage washer, some extra nozzles, wands, hoses, etc. and I don't know what will or will not fit, what connector sizes are, etc.

Here is my washer: https://www.harborfreight.com/lawn-...pm-corded-electric-pressure-washer-63254.html

Here is the connector on the washer:

...it connects to this hose:

This is the connector on the other end of the hose:

....and it connects to this sprayer:

The connector on the sprayer is like this:

And the wand on the sprayer can be detached like this:

The ONLY thing I don't want to replace is the pressure washer itself.

I want to get something like this: https://www.amazon.com/MINGLE-Press...7c74080f35&ref_=pd_gw_ci_mcx_mr_hp_atf_m&th=1 and something like this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/265835253534?hash=item3de5040f1e:g:KOUAAOSw1kJi~L8N&amdata=enc:AQAHAAAA8MfUI1Xw6UNEnADoDdXgE4O7ixmV/gAu25aQp+/1edtY1y7HFzwHmpQQt4NhO4dnMkwTH751uDS5WQNZOjRZagiDu0inJWvbM280T2gpkJeGRRp59a3qFudREvCwmthySadWzl+kJfrXzgRjGlzEc4u84ZFf0HuNjbDfr1UgBuKIJAZp4oUvR8DyM+jrIrrlYJEkCNeRcHHx8ZgRINogSa6j3DD0jyaCu9BSrM4jlL6Y6P19yHJE67DN/1u5CJ+06ISJfaFAf+N7DAb90CgoyYPnkKhvF5eSuat3w25X5miVocnPw0bw26LCQ+IJ5F9uMQ==|tkp:BFBMksy2suhh

When you spend very little you get one that wont work with common accessories. The accessories ive seen are universal in a common size. Home depot sells accessories and if they dont fit you can return them.

i bought one at costco years ago. It started leaking and i wanted to save the hose and wand. They didnt even unscrew! All permanently attached. Had to junk the whole thing.

make sure you buy one with removable hose.

i bought the better electric pw at HF. Its been working great. Works with generic accessories i bought. Not TOO powerful to damage your vehicle. I use it to also power wash backyard furniture, stucco and concrete as well, which is why one attached to the wall wouldnt work for me. And i have HFs extended warranty. Any issues and i walk in/walk out with a new one.
