I think it's laziness. There are still DIY car washes furhter upstate in
NY. The one I went to in Troy (years ago) was open all winter.

Paul,
Not a bad idea - and one I seem to remember doing as a teen-ager once in
Tennessee. Unfortunately, there seem to be no DIY car washes on Long
Island.
This is the farthest North I've ever lived so I don't know the reasoning
for
it. Could it be that they freeze and burst pipes up here? Could
vanadlism be
the reason? Are people are too damn lazy to do it themselves? The reason
I
have concluded (based on nothing other than my limited brain cells) is
that
land is so incredibly expensive here and the times of year when it is
possible
for frozen pipes to happen is so long that you can't make money on the
deal.
Or they could be too lazy and likely to tear it up for fun here.
