4. Anything else that I should consider?

I've yet to see any hand vac that's terribly useful for the car,
honestly.

I tend to avoid tinyurl's due to the security ramifications of them,
but whatever you get you'll want to have the flexibility to use a long
nosed attachment on a hose to get in all the cracks and crevices in
the car, you'll also apreciate a soft round attachment for doing the
dash and controls, and a small width carpet attachment with a powered
head.

You'd get more mileage out of a small shopvac I'd think, though a
good quality canister vacuum would give you the option of a powered
hand carpet attachment.

Curious about how that works.

I have a canister; just hevay to take it out to the gragae, etc. and
hence don't vacuum often enough.

What is a shopvac?

Just imagine someone putting a really nasty URL that could potentially
corrupt your computer (or steal your identity or credit-card info) into
a tiny URL. That's how that works.

Big ol' honking canister vac.

Just as McDonald's is where you go when you're hungry but don't really
care about the quality of your food, Wikipedia is where you go when
you're curious but don't really care about the quality of your knowledge.

- Matthew White's WikiWatch (http://users.erols.com/mwhite28/wikiwoo.htm)

save money just borrow one from a friend. these items are too gimmicky
and small. you use them a couple of times and then ignore them.
[similarly, it was a happy day here when a friend borrowed a hand
steamer from us; it was just wasting space after a couple of
inefficient uses.]
i know you will have more efficient cleaning done at a coin operated
carwash vacuum cleaner and you don't have to store it. it's the same
answer as which vacuum style upright rug shampooer with a tiny one
gallon capacity should one buy. none, just rent or borrow and get
owning it out of your system.
if you still want one, i generally like the extensive reviews found at:

Go to www.tinyurl.com and paste in the long address that you have into their
blank box. It will produce a short one which you copy and paste to, well,
here. The security issue is that no one else can be sure that the tinyurl
address hides the real address and could be hiding porn, viruses, etc. It
makes people nervous.

You're essentially clicking on an unknown link, with no way of
predicting where you'll be going, and if there'll be a 0day exploit
against your web browser waiting on the other other end, in the worst
case, and no way of knowing if you'll be headed to a shock site
that's inappropriate to whatever working environment you find yourself
in presently. The verb "tubgirl'd" has been invented to describe
the misuse of a redirection link like that.

A brand of heavy duty wet/dry canister vacuums that tends to live in
the garage, comes in all shapes and sizes:

I see. I thought that by "security", he meant computer security w.r.t
virus, etc.

My way of assruing that the link was about the vacuum was by giving
the vacuum info along with the tunyurl links, but I should realize that
there are cases where people gives nasty links with unrelated words. I
almost plut the originla links but in anotther ng, I was give info on
using tinylinks but they knew me though.
