Default Vacuum Cleaner

Sorry, can't spell today but I was wondering if anyone has used the power outlet in the Cruiser to juice up the vacume cleaner? Also, any recommendations on portable cleaners?

Thanks, and thanks for entertaining me while I wait for my cruiser, ordered late May and shipping next week.

Don't know about vacuum cleaners, but I'm looking at pickup a Bissell Little Green Machine. It's a portable deep cleaner that's great for small spaces like cars.

There was a post some time ago, in the maintenance section I think, about a little vacuum cleaner with a motorized brush in WalMart. It seemed fairly popular, I might even get one.

I bought one of the WalMart vacuums; they're about $15 and have a separate power head with rotating brush for carpets, etc.
Haven't had a chance to use mine yet; never have time to drive the car, so it never gets dirty.

I got this one from WalMart. Works great and comes with all the gadgets. I think it was about $15.00

If you take the seats out and vacuum, the car has a great flat space! No tight corners to vacuum, not even on the dash by the windshield. This car is so easy to clean. Not easy to keep clean with my 9 year old, but easy to clean up once you get it dirty.
